AutoTune 5 Native in PT8 Crashes sessions w/ earlier versions

I've got AutoTune 5 running on Pro-Tools HD 8.0.0cs2 - and opening any older sessions with AutoTune (ver 4) plugins inserted, will completely Crash Pro-Tools.


The ONLY workaround, is to

- remove AutoTune5 from the Plugins folder,
- Launch ProTools,
- Open the session
- Remove the deActivated AutoTune plugs
- reSave the session,
- Quit Pro Tools
- RePlace the AutoTune5 .dpm
- Re Launch ProTools
- Re Load the session
- Insert a NEW instance Of AutoTune and "Re Configure" reAutomate

This is SUCH a Long workAround, but is happening with ALL my sessions from Circa 2005 / 2006 when I was Running AutoTune 4

Here's the crash.
