Hi All

I have a plugin which I can't get to appear in machine, it's the Lounge Lizard plugin, I've re-scanned the folder in preferences, enabled full disk access and re-set the database and still no joy, it shows up in the preferences but not in the instruments side browser, anyone know if Machine should recognise this plugin?

Did you click the box to include the NKS presets when you downloaded it?

If you click the button to add a VST manually, rather than use the instrument browser is the plug in not listed under VST>AAS?

hobbah72

found it, it shows when selecting a plugin, now how the hell do I open the plugin GUI?

Click the little diagonal arrow.

hobbah72

which one?

BJQ1972

In between Sound and Page 1 in the Control Area.

it just changes the direction of the arrow?

Hmm. It shouldn't.

It does change direction, but when it's pointing one way the vst pop up should appear, and disappear when you click it again. You can also see it in mixer view, if it's not working as it should in the main view.

It does the same thing in mixer view, I think it's a bug, do you know how to raise this with NI?

Is this in Logic? There is a bug with plugin windows but it's already reported and being fixed. Standalone should work though (or another host)

hobbah72

Yes it's in Logic, Just tested the standalone and it works fine. I'll raise a ticket with the chat bot!, thanks for letting me know.

You don't need to - as I said it's already been reported and a fix is in the works
