External VST plugins slow down timeline loading

PostSat Apr 14, 2018 6:26 pm

First of, since this is my first post: AWESOME work on DaVinci Resolve 15.
I've been using Premiere Pro for over 18 years and I'm completely switching.
Also, I've been singing your praises to other professionals in the field, they are trying DaVinci Resolve now as well.

I do audio for movies and as such I use a lot of external VST plugins.

However, when adding a VST to the master bus of a timeline (I'm using iZotope Ozone 7 for mastering), it takes a long time to load (about ~7 seconds, in which DvR becomes unresponsive).

When switching to another timeline (either through loading it, through the timeline tabs or by clicking on the playhead when multiple timelines are open), the VST is loading again, causing a ~7 second program freeze.

This makes switching timelines a huge hassle, including copying clips from one timeline to another.

I can only imagine how much longer loading will take when I use individual VSTs on clips rather than tracks/busses.
