Hi. i just updated my Ilok drivers and updated my ethno to the newest version because i was have a problem with Ethno maybe causing protools to hang.. Now when i load it it says Ethno is loading on the Protools splash screen but is missing when i open a session with an instance of Ethno in the session or a new session... its not in my list of plugs!? any ideas? thanks

Make sure you're trying to insert it on a stereo instrument track (not mono), and you're looking under multi-channel plug-ins (not multi-mono).

Yep did that. still doesnt work. I have a session where it is already inserted on a track and im useing Ethno for about 8 MIDI tracks i get this message from protools "The plugin was made inactive because it couldnt find Ethno instrument" Its in the protools plugin folder, it loads on the splash screen. should i just uninstall it and start over?

Hello. Did you find a solution to this? I am having the same problem in Pro Tools. Ethno won't show up as a plug-in. Thanks.

Maybe search at du.idigdsign for Ethno- there might be some mention of it not being compatible with PT8.
Also some people are getting some recalcitrant plugins to work in PT8 by adding a suffix to the plug in name (.dpm ?- check at duc.digidesign).
