VST3 Plugins Not Working, Only The Original VST Plugins Do?

Postby Trackstheuser » Fri Mar 06, 2020 6:45 pm

Hello all! I am trying to figure out if everyone is getting this problem or I am just freaking out over nothing...
I recently activated my account (woo!) and got the free plugins (double woo!). I installed and activated them as well as add the folders into my directory into Studio One. The main problem is that I can only find the VST plugins in my folders and not the VST3 plugins! I double-checked to make sure that Studio One is looking in the right folders (which it is), but to no avail. All my other plugins with VST3 options work and are found where they should be, it is only the IKMM plugins that are giving me this strange hassle.
Is anyone else having this problem, or am I doing something wrong here? Please help!

Hello Trackstheuser » and welcome to the forum.

I think that the installers put the VSt3 plug-ins in a fixed location.
(a) try the install again and make sure that you select the VST3 option,
(b) do a Search of your disk(s) for the IK Multimedia VST3 plugins,
(c) make sure that the path to them is one used by your DAW.

Having said that, I do not know what advantages the VST3 editions offer compared with VST2.
