Can confirm, the left VU meter in the Classic Skin is entirely dead.
Maker of Plugins, I suppose.
gen_native:

vis_sdl2:

(I know, creative names)

Based on the code not having changed around the handling it's actually an older bug (potentially going back to 2024) which 23518 just happens to be more likely to trigger. As it's still possible for it to work but is more likely to fail when using a modern skin. I'm still double-checking changes I've made as I've not seen it happen with them but as it could work before am being cautious.

You are fast ;)
Confirmed, the left VU meter in the Classic Skin is dead on 32bit version.

Another phenomon which I might have heard also in the previous beta: The 32bit version sounds "better".
I have to check settings of equalizer and used outpot plugin.

The length column is still empty but I'm confident for the future ;)
Have a good Monday start into the week !

P.S. This is feedback no critics.

The preview build has been updated to 23528 which should now resolve this issue in 23518.
