Yea these are all legit (owned by me) plug-ins that work in my Cubase7 and Sonar X2. Just saying so there's no doubts... I listed them so that it might help the process along in knowing just which plugins fail to enable atm. Im sure it will be addressed soon.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
This is looking like a pattern; plugins are a little wonky in DP 8

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
I think the pattern here is DP8 defaults in 64 bit mode, or the other way around, "Philharmonic" for instance is 32 bit if it's the IK Multimedia plug in. Lounge Lizard has a 64 bit update. Also Windows and the VST spec requires a 32 and 64 bit version... Cubase has a bit bridge, I think so does Sonar, so you're less likely to run into issues like this. There is a cheap bit bridge called jBridge here: http://jstuff.wordpress.com/jbridge/
Highly recommended, but my guess is a good amount of issues loading will be solved with updating your plug ins, and making sure what bit DP8 is in.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
Not so with the MIA Waves plugs. MOTU support says they are working on their machines. Waves support accessed my machine and checked everything out (and then some) and they should be working, but they're not. Gravity Jim has the same problem I do with the same plugs (which show up in DP7 and Bidule just fine). So it is, IMO, DP8.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
OK I'm not running into that, yet, haven't checked all my VST / AU's but Lounge Lizard 4 and Reaktor 5 FX both load here in 64 bit mode.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
It's not the end of the world for me. If I need it I can jump back to DP7. THere are bigger fish to fry, but I'd still like to get it all sorted out at some point. Otherwise, things are just fine. I probably won't be working in DP until mid-June as I'm all about Finale the next few weeks.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
Did you get this resolved? I'm having similar issues. DP has found everything except for EastWest Play and Kontakt 5. I'm running in 64bit, and VST's are also 64bit.spikey wrote:1. All of my BFD drums

In your list, you mentioned Wordbuilder. I'm pretty sure that's only 32bit if it's the old NI version. The Play version has Wordbuilder built into the GUI.
Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
I have resolved this on my iMac. Since it is soooo easy to switch between 32 bit and 64 bit modes, I just changed my Version of DP8 to 32 bit, and it loaded every plugin I threw at it. Since windows is not as user friendly in this area, Im not sure what we need to do other than wait for a patch. It was said in the mac side that DP "designed" the 64 bit version of DP without 32 bit bridge support, for stability reasons, and that it was "hit and miss" as to whether or not the plugin would load in 32 bit mode running 64 bit DP on the mac.... Thats about all I know atm...
Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
Two versions of the DP program are installed for a Windows 64 bit OS. One 32 and one 64 bit, so it's just a matter of which you launch.

Re: Many VST's not Loading up in Windows
The 32 bit version is in C:\Program Files (x86)\MOTU and the 64 bit version is in C:\Program Files\MOTU. Whatever you've done to your shortcuts or whatever you've deleted, I do not know.
