Synfire (latest Version) will crash:
- as soon as i access the top menu of the app (Apple, Synfire, Edit..)
This doesnt happen always, but very often, an it happens as soon as the app is loaded
- when i try to import a midi file, browsing in the OSX file dialog will immediately freeze the app (coloured ball is spinning)

Thanks for reporting.
I could not reproduce this yet (using Synfire all day on 10.14.6 beta), but it is likely that the next update will fix it, since we improved some details how the UI interfaces with macOS.
If you know a way to repoduce it reliably, we could verify whether the fix is successful.

On the road map is a simplification of the creation of phrases, including generative features for melodies and harmony. Assembling an arrangement from phrases is child's play and fun, but harvesting and collecting phrases is what takes a lot of preparation time currently, so we want to make that easier. I'll post a bit on that topic later.

There's a new build online now that attempts to make the Mac menu more robust in a wider range of situations. Let us know if it improved anything on your Mac (actually I always thought the good things with Macs is that, unlike generic PCs, they behave all the same ... doesn't seem to be the case).

Apple's developmennt tools don't complain about any multi-threading issues at all, so I suspect this is dependent on hardware. We don't have a 2018 MacBook Pro at hand unfortunately. Can you contact us at support at cognitone dot com, so we can iron this out together?
