Slate Plugins / DP / Startup Errors

Post by JSmith1234567 »

Hi.

I keep getting and authorization error message when loading a DP project about a number of Slate plug-ins I don't own ( for instance "FG-Bomber", whatever that is, is one of them).

I do own a few of their VCC plug-ins, but not these particular ones.

Is there a way to totally delete them to stop DP asking for them on startup?

Slate must install them when you by other plug-ins from them?

Thanks!

Go to the Slate website - www.slatedigital.com, and send a support ticket to tech support.
They are very good about answering.

You have a problem that might be unique to your system or situation. I have a subscription to
Slate Everything bundle and also own a few of the plugins outright. I have never seen an alert like
the one you reported.

Maybe check your components folder and remove them if they're there:

Finder > Hold option key > Go menu > Library > Audio > Plug-ins > Components

If VST then that folder is also in the Plug-ins folder along side 'Components'.
I use my Components folder so much (and it's buried pretty deep) that I keep it in my sidebar in the Finder.

Hey thanks!

I should have thought of that.

I'll do that.
