I suppose I can live with the working plugins scattered to the four winds but there’s a whole junkyard of not working ones (and now blacklisted ones to boot) and this process might help me decide where to stick them. Is there a way to tell from the file if it’s 32-bit, 64-bit, VST2 or VST3? My NI plugins have 圆4 under file properties/Details/ Product version but I guess this is just a non-obligatory kindness from the developer. Had to put them back.Īnd the rest of the Steinberg plugins are in c:/program files/steinberg/cubase 9/vst3/ (not to mention other VST folders for previous cubase versions)Īlso, some are. I tried copying them to the above folder and reloading plugins and restarting Cubase but no dice. Groove Agent SE and Halion Sound SE are in c:/program files/common files/Steinberg/shared components. Dunno if the dots before /common files/ are a wildcard but the only things in c:/program files/common files/vst3/ are Padshop and Retrologue. Sounded great till I went back to the pewter to check.ĭear LDeary, re VST3 always being installed in c:/…/common files/vst3/ … Ps by creating your own 32/64 bit seperate directories you can delete the 32bit versions after install manually as some developers also insist on installing both no matter what you choose. at the end of the day the best option is to use VST3 whenever possible as they always go to the same default directory (do not change this default)Ĭheers hope this is as clear as a muddy duck In those cases or when a choice is not offered during installation there is not much you can do other than meticulous file/folder maintenance and/or move the dll files manually to your chosen directory. (eg cakewalk z3ta is a prime example of terrible installation it installs itself to 3 different directories for no apparent reason. Some developets however refuse to play nice in the sandbox and still put files all over the place at their whim despite what the user wants/specifies. To create c:/vst32-plugins and c:/vst64-plugins directories (or your choice of course) and force vst2 installations to those respectively. VST2 on the other hand will install anywhere the developer has decided to put them usually. VST3 will always install to c:/…/common files/vst3/ … fire and forget there will be no issues.
