Where are (some of) my Plugins?

Postby drumandstage@gmail.com » Sat Aug 31, 2019 2:58 pm

I jumped on the buy 1 get 7 free deal like many of you.

Here are my choices that I have already (supposedly) downloaded:

T-RackS Stealth Limiter v.5.2.1
T-RackS Quad Image v.5.2.1
T-RackS Vintage Tube Compressor/Limiter Model 670 v.5.2.1
T-RackS Master EQ 432 v.5.2.1
T-RackS 5 v.5.2.1
AmpliTube Metal v.4.9.0
Ampeg SVX 2 v.4.9.0
AmpliTube Custom Shop v.4.9.0
Syntronik Free v.1.2.0
Lurssen Mastering Console v.1.1.0
SampleTank Custom Shop v.3.7.3
T-RackS 5 Custom Shop v.5.2.
1

NOTE: I included the version numbers because when downloading the files, it SEEMED like all the downloads with similar versions were the same file (download). So, now that I can't find some of these files in my DAW (I have refreshed, tried to reinstall, etc., and so it is really suspect to me.

Here is a of the status of each of the above:

T-RackS Stealth Limiter v.5.2.1-IN DAW
T-RackS Quad Image v.5.2.1-IN DAW
T-RackS Vintage Tube Compressor/Limiter Model 670 v.5.2.1-**NOT IN DAW
T-RackS Master EQ 432 v.5.2.1-IN DAW
T-RackS 5 v.5.2.1-WHAT ITEM IS THIS, SPECIFICALLY? I DON'T SEE ANYTHING WITH THIS EXACT NAME
AmpliTube Metal v.4.9.0-**NOT IN DAW (there is an Amplitube 4)
Ampeg SVX 2 v.4.9.0-**NOT IN DAW
AmpliTube Custom Shop v.4.9.0-**NOT IN DAW (there is an Amplitube 4)
Syntronik Free v.1.2.0-IN DAW
Lurssen Mastering Console v.1.1.0-IN DAW
SampleTank Custom Shop v.3.7.3-IN DAW (SAMPLETANK 3)
T-RackS 5 Custom Shop v.5.2.1-**NOT IN DAW


Please help me correct or understand this!!!

Hello drumandstage and welcome to the forum.

Yes, the names can get a bit confusing, Anyway, here goes:

T-RackS Vintage Tube Compressor/Limiter Model 670 should show up as "TR5 VC_670"; double-check that you Activated it and in the standalone Custom Shop, login, go to the T-RackS section, select [Gear}, then "Restore my gear".

T-Racks 5 is this product:
https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/tr5/?pkey=tr5

When you install it, you get the three products:
-- the T-RackS 5 standalone program and plug-ins,
-- the Custom Shop program which allows you to try out other gear models (for AmpliTube and T-RackS) and "Restore my gear"to make all you purchased items fully available in your DAW,
-- the Authorization Manager, used to Register and Authorise your products.
Those last 2 are standalone programs and will not be listed as plug-ins in your DAW.

When you Authorize it the 9 included TR5 processor modules will be fully available as individual plug-ins in your DAW, or they can be loaded into the "TR5 Suite" plug-in.


AmpliTube Metal and Ampeg SVX 2 are both sets of gear models that run within the AmpliTube program or plug-in. When you run the AmpliTube Custom Shop installer, it installs 3 different software products:
-- the AmpliTube program and plug-in(s) which will load the AmpliTube Metal and Ampeg SVX gear models,
-- the Custom Shop program,
-- the Authorization Manager.

SampleTank Custom Shop also installs 3 products
--the SampleTank program and plug-in(s) which will the SampleTank 3 instruments (they are separate downloads),
-- the Custom Shop program,
-- the Authorization Manager.

Similarly T-RackS 5 Custom Shop would install 3 products:
-- the T-RackS 5 standalone program and plug-ins (TR5 Suite (with some metering) and TR5 Classic EQ,
-- the Custom Shop program,
-- the Authorization Manager.
But you do not need it as you have T-RackS 5,

I hope that that helps.

Can you post a screenshot of the list of all IK Multimedia plug-ins that your DAW has recognised?

Sorry for the delay...

Haven't had much time to get into it, yet. I DID find the gear models that run within the other programs. Thanks!

You seem to have provided a very clear explanation and I am confident that you have given me what I need to get going. I tremendously appreciate it!
