I'm a long time KLC user, and usually I have almost no issues, however, I have a very annoying bug with Legacy Cell. On certain VI hosts, in my case Jambalaya and MainStage (both live performance environments), every time I reload a project file, Legacy Cell sort of disables itself. The VI shows as enabled, and it's obviously taking up CPU cycles, but the volume for the patch has been turned down to -oo, and the individual synths have been muted. I have to switch to another patch and back again for it to load correctly, meaning if I've made any changes without writing to that block, my changes are lost (sorta my fault, but I shouldn't have to). It does not exhibit this behavior within Digital Performer, and works perfectly on every load.
Some other people have reported "forgets settings on load" in logic, and I wonder whether this is what they're referring to. But now that it's happened on two VI hosts now (I only recently switched to MainStage, and used to think it was a bug with the long-in-the-tooth Jambalaya), I'm pretty sure that other's would have had this problem. I believe MainStage uses a pretty similar engine to Logic, but I don't use Logic being a MOTU man myself, so I can't compare.
Any workarounds? It's pretty worrisome. I use soft synths for live shows, and if I forget to go through and reload all the LC patches, I'll end up dead on a solo!

I've also noticed this on Mainstage both version 2 & version 3.
The only work around that I've been able to use is to go through all my songs for the set prior to a performance and make sure all my KLC patches play.
Mostly, that seems to work, but I can't say it works 100% of the time.
It's still a mystery to me what is going on because the sound is neither muted or set to 0. At least toggling the mute button or moving the volume settings do not fix the issue. Only opening up the VST and changing the patch selection to something else and then setting it back to the original.
I would also like to know if anyone else has a better workaround.
Cheers
