Polyphone 2.0 Crashes with FlexASIO 1.4 installed

    Hello,
    I've been using Polyphone for a month or two now and I love it! However today I started it up for the first time in a couple days and I got a crash on startup. I uninstalled and reinstalled the 64bit version several times. I also cleared out the registry key by hand and even tried installing the 32bit version to no avail. I checked the Windows error logs and saw the error may be caused by ucrtbase.DLL Which has been responsible for quite a few application crashes as it is tied to the MS Visual C runtimes.

    I tried repairing all versions of my MS Visual C runtimes but the problem persists. I finally ran the MS Visual Studio Debugger and even though Polyphone.exe was built without debug information as it is in release mode. I saw the DLL dependency tree that was loaded and spotted the DLL for FlexASIO which I happened to install only today. I uninstalled FlexASIO and Polyphone started working again. As a developer I know this is probably not a problem with Polyphone.exe at all but I thought I would post here as well as on the FlexASIO development repo to assist both sets of developers just in case. I hope this post proves useful to someone.
    I am loath to uninstall FlexASIO permanently since it works wonderfully well with my production chain and I need it for some of my software. Looks like I'll be juggling installs/uninstalls for a while though

    OS: Win7/64bit
    Interaction issue with:=: 64bit and 32bit Versions of Polyphone. I even tried version 1.9 and has the same issue.

    Try this:
    Open the Polyphone software folder, (in Program Files or Program Files (x86)
    Rename the portaudio(NN) dll in the Polyphone folder. (eg: dllx)

    Then; Open the Flexasio software folder, (in Program Files or Program Files (x86)
    copy the Portaudio(NN) dll there into the Polyphone software's folder.
    Make sure both are x64 or x86.

    I hope it helps.

    Thanks a lot for the debug. I created a ticket on GitHub

    I arrive after the battle: it's already been fixed on the FlexASIO side

    FlexASIO 1.5 solves the issue
