Re: MachFive3 Crash loading instruments

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check that out. Just curious, did you try using Kontact with Giga sounds? I read on their site that it is slow to load.

Re: MachFive3 Crash loading instruments

I too bought MachFive3 as a replacement for GigaStudio as I have a large library of Giga sounds. I generally want to run MF3 as a plugin in Sonar X1. I have tried MF3 as a plugin and as stand alone and have yet to get a Giga sound to load and play back successfully. As a plugin it will crash Sonar c...

Re: Ethno VST on Win x64 in Sonar Problem

This is great info! After I wrote the original post I ended up dumping x64 for various reasons and have been running everything in x32 since. When I do the next upgrade to my system I was planning on going back to x64 because so many more drivers and plugins have stablized or actually exist now for ...

I wasn't referring to this board. I was talking about the actual MOTU Tech Support, or lack there of. I have no complaints about people who are willing to help, especially volunteers. I think this board is actually pretty great, even if it's mostly Mac. :wink:

You're not going to like my answer. I never got any response from MOTU. And somewhere along the line it just started working for me. I think I reinstalled but I can't remember exactly what all I did. Sorry.

Is there anyone using Sonar 6 that actually has Ethno working? If I load Ethno as a DXi, it loads a blank window. If I load it as a VSTi, it actually causes Sonar to dump out to Windows. I just submitted a support request to MOTU about this. We'll see how long it takes to get a useful response.

This was a real bummer when I started looking into it. I had purchased Ethno because I was going to be doing an album that needed ethno type stuff, and Bagpipes was one of the main instruments. No drones! I found something in the loops that may have come out of a bagpipe but it sounds more like a si...

Ethno VST on Win x64 in Sonar Problem

I am trying to use Ethno as a VSTi in Sonar 6 x64. Whenever the DLL is read by Sonar on startup, my PC auto-reboots. Handy feature, unless you ever want to use the software. Anyone ever have this problem or has anyone actually used Ethno on an x64 PC with Sonar? Or does anyone have any ideas as to h...
