    'Insert Plugin On Next Free Slot (Intelligent) goes haywire

    What do you expect to happen when you run the script/macro?

    I expect it to insert a channel strip in the first available plugin slot.

    Are you seeing an error?

    I'm getting so many errors in the upper right corner of my screen I can't keep up with them. It hides all of my tracks, and then unhides them and brings up a track color screen and brings back the tracks it's hidden and gets hung up trying rename one of my hidden tracks with too many characters. Why would it be changing the name of a track?

    What happens when you run this script?

    As I said. It hides tracks and brings up color windows and maybe the memory window and then tries to rename one of my hidden tracks with too many characters.

    How were you running this script?

    I clicked the "Run Script" or "Run Macro" button in SoundFlow

    How important is this issue to you?

      Hey @David_Shackney,

      This package is quite old and I haven't gotten around to updating it yet (I'm not sure when I'll have the opportunity to revisit it).
      I suggest using @Kitch's Tezio's plugin loader in the meantime.
