Hey Georges,

Thanks for your reply.

My QC library contains only my own macro patches, I have absolutely no plugin 
installed.

This is why I’m asking if the composition crashes on others’ machines as well.
If you could just launch this for a few minutes and see if it is stable on your 
side?

>>> dd_AngleDistance.qtz


Nice to hear from old-timers ;)
