Error code -1 was returned by the Core Audio Driver

I searched and couldn't find the exact issue here.

 

I downloaded and installed the SSL free plug-in and all of a sudden, Logic 7.1.1 is now returning "Error code -1 was returned by the Core Audio Driver" when starting up. I am able to get in and use the plug-in though.

 

The plug-in passes AU Validation. If I disable it by unchecking it in the AU Manager, Logic starts up fine with no error messge. As soon as I check it again, Logic returns the error message.

 

So I disabled the SSL plug-in and downloaded and installed Crystal. Exact same problem.

 

I tried repairing permissions, trashing prefs and trying again, but no luck. The only other 3rd Party plug-in I have is BFD.

 

Anyone have any other ideas?

 

Thanks.

Issue solved. I'm posting this for others who may run into this issue.

 

I'm not exactly sure why it was a problem to begin with, but before installing the SSL plug, the only 3rd party plug-in I had was BFD.

 

BFD was setup in my autoload. Once I installed the SSL plug, when Logic 7.1.1 would startup using my autoload (with BFD), the error -1 would occur. Disabling the SSL plug in AU Manager cleared the error so I thought the issue was the SSL plug.

 

I decided to remove the BFD plugin setup from my autoload, saved the autoload, re-enabled the SSL plug in AU Manager, re-launched Logic, and the error was gone.

 

I put the BFD back in my autoload and saved it again to see if the error would re-occur. It did not. Problem solved.

 

As to why this occurred, I don't know.

Just ran into the same exact problem...was driving me batty! But you were right on. Went into my autoload and sure enough, BFD All was crossed out! Thanks for the tip!!!!
