Incredible! So beautiful, spacious, and balanced.

Try opening the project in the 32bit version of FL, and see if it crashes there. If it doesn't crash, try enabling bridged mode in the plugins advanced options to see if it forces FL64 to bridge it. This is assuming that the native loader is crashing. Otherwise, remove it from the project in FL32, save, then in FL64 load the 32bit version if it exists. Hopefully one of those will work.

Excellent remix! The descending arp creates a nice background on which the song builds, and it has just the right amount of complexity. Very nice!

I love how the kick and clap turned out on this one. It says better mix because it's the second, better, and shorter version.

z3ta+ 1.53's 6 Voice Chorus (using the z3ta_fx VST). It's the best chorus I've ever used. It's like heavy whipping cream for synths.

A quick question on Sidechain -

Does anyone ever use multiband sidechain compression? In this particular instance, I'm looking to duck only the Sub from my Bass bus but not the higher frequencies. I was playing with Trackspacer for this purpose.

Would be interested to see what other techniques people use.
What I recommended previously, Volume Shaper 4, will do this perfectly. It's a 3 band volume envelope processor with MIDI triggering.

I usually put an instance of Maximus on each synth channel to shape the final sound of the instrument into something I like. Most of the shaping comes from building specific compression/expansion curves + soft saturation targeted to each frequency band. But this technique seems to be frowned upon...works well for me.

I've found using MIDI triggered Volume Shaper 4 gives incredible control as a sidechain. You can really do some cool suppression type response (like in Flume's remix of Lay Me Down), or separate the release for the upper and lower frequency bands to allow most of the instrument to come through immediately after the attack while the tail of the kick dominates the <100hz range for it's full length.
