Description

### Bug Summary
If more than 8 bands are created in REAeq, the project crashes instead of saving

#### Steps to reproduce
My setup was REAeq on MASTER in FX. After adding band 9 lmms crash when save is pressed. No warning

#### Actual behavior
Band 9+ can be added and influence the output as expected, but if the project is 'saved', it just shuts down.

#### Screenshot

#### Affected LMMS versions
1.2.2 off. win10 64b

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash with a VST REAeq instance after adding a ninth band, then save the project on the reported LMMS 1.2.2 Windows setup. Trace the save path for dynamically changing plugin parameter counts; done means projects with more than eight bands save without LMMS shutting down.
