Logic Pro X Crashing while using Komplete Ultimate 9 Battery 4 Plugin

Question

Hi Everyone!
I am encountering consistent crashes with Logic Pro X and Native Instruments Komplete Ultimate 9 Battery 4 Plugin. If I create about 4 tracks with a bunch of midi notes I.E. numerous kicks, numerous snares, numerous claps and numerous hi hats Logic Pro X will consistently quit when I go to Save As and then click save. I get the circle and then bam! Logic Pro states that “Logic Pro Quit Unexpectedly while using the Battery 4 Plugin.” I have inserted the crash image too. This only happens with the Battery 4 Plugin and does not occur with any of the other plugins in Komplete 9 Ultimate or any of Logic's Plugins. I have tried to Save As and Save Copy As with the outcome being the same crash. The fact that the crash occurs when I am going to Save As tells me that something is most likely occurring with Logic Pro X and not Battery...right? I really like Battery 4--to the point that I don't want to go back unless I must--and the drum sounds in Battery 4 are perfect for my electronic music that I produce. Any help is appreciated in advance. I have repaired my disk, updated Komplete with the latest updates and contacted Komplete which still has not responded (one week later) Here are my computer specs:
Imac 27” Mid 2011
1 TB internal HD with 800 GB free space
16gb ram
3.4 GHz
I7 Processor
Presonus Firestudio Interface
OS X 10.8.5
Logic Pro 10.0.6
Lacie 7200 RPM 500GB USB external HD for my Komplete 9 Ultimate Sample Library with 200 GB free space
Minipro SSD 250 GB Hard Drive for session

Thanks for posting DeeJayKeyz, it helps to know you are experiencing the same issue...although I wish none of us were. I have done the following to troubleshoot the Battery 4 crash issue in hopes of finding a solutions yet it still comes up:
Repaired Disk Permissions
Reinstalled Battery 4 app and library
Initialized Preferences in Logic X except for key commands
Trashed the com.apple.audiounitlugins
Trashed Logic's preferences via the Library
Set up a new administrator account in preferences>user and tried again…
With all the above troubleshooting, the issue eventually comes back. The most success I had was when creating a new user. BUT, I still experienced crashing on Logic Pro 9 every time and the crash would occur with the first save with Logic Pro X when using the Battery 4 Plugin on the new user account. Again, for the sake of repetition, Logic Pro 9 consistently crashed when "save[ing] As" and Logic Pro X would crash the first time I went to Save As, but would “save as” with no issues after the first crash when creating a new admistrator user. In both cases I had 16 tracks of Battery going, but it doesn't take more than 4 to re-create the crash. On a side note, if I change the tracks to Massive or Absyth I don't get crashes...just battery 4 for me so far. I have not tried it with Kontact as I have been spending too much time figuring out the Battery Logic issue. Bummed to know that I may experience this issue dow the road with Kontact :/ sure with Native Instruments and Logic would get their heads together to figure this out. I contacted Apple and dealt with Garry in support. He was helpful and came up with creating a new user. He did tell me to call back if I had any other crashes and this would be taken to a higher administration lever. But when I called back low and behold, I dealt with someone else who just blamed battery 4. I have to say though…using the "save as" feature and crashing while using a plugin appears to be a Logic problem…although I don't doubt there is a communication issue btw the two programs.
