System crash when changing essential sound noise reduction setting

[anthony_johns]

Noticed system slowing and then hanging when sweeping though the "reduce noise" control in the new essential sound panel in 2017.1 version 11.

2015 5K iMac on macOS 10.12.4. Thoughts?

I think there's an issue with audio noise reduction at the moment. Interesting what others have on this.

I am experiencing the same problem. 3 times in a row. Shut down machine in between; everytime it captures audio, it crashes.

Tried both via editing the sequence, and a clip, from Premiere.

Shit.

I've reproduced that moving the Reduce Noise slider will result in distortion and continued use with result in Premiere to stop responding. A bug has been logged for investigation by development. Thank you for the report.
