For some reason, the Master Effects tab causes MuseScore to crash upon being selected. This causes an issue when I'm trying to reduce reverb during playback.

OS: Windows 8.1
Ver: MuseScore 2.0 B1


Comments

On my system, what I get during the crash is an error saying it can't get access to OpenGL 2.0 to render something. It suggests that ANGLE be installed to convert the OpenGL calls to DirectX.

However, my card says it supports OpenGL 2.1. So the error is false. But maybe that might help point you in the right direction.

I'd attach a screenshot of the error, but it spontaneously stopped giving me one. The box is instead now blank, like in #28776.

I downloaded 2.0 for the first time last night (Win7), was surprised at how high the default reverb level was set. But I can't modify it without crashing the program.

I open "Synthesizer", select "Master Effects", and change "Effect A" from "Zita1" to "NoEffect", then "Save to Score". When I close Synthesizer, I get the error message: "mscore.exe has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."

I've tried this several times, also after restarting my computer. Sometimes I get a crash just by clicking "Master Effects".

Can someone who was previously able to reproduce this crash verify that it is now fixed in the latest nightly builds with Werner's change to remove the QML?
