Hello Sylvain,

I don't have any idea why it is crashing off my head now, but -- to
get more infos -- just a few questions / suggestions....

1) have you the "automatically connect new tracks/busses" switch on?
   try to set it to off, so you can see if its just the adding of
   the bus or the connections that crash ardour.
2) does the crash happen as well, if you use a smaller project
   (e.g. only the master bus or just one track)?
3) why are you trying to use a post fader send? why don't you just
   connect the output of your track(s) to the new bus besides the
   master bus, add your plugin on the bus pre or post fader and
   connect the output of the bus to whatever you like. I'm doing
   the latter frequently, but I must confess, I never used a
   send ;-)

hope this helps,
Hermann Vosseler
