VST3 not working properly for Arturia VST synths

Post by vargo001 »

So, every 2nd or 3rd preset in the Arturia V Collection synths (latest version) of any instrument fails to load the sound. Sometimes, going forward or backward in the presets, and then back to the preset loads it. Sometimes waiting a few seconds helps. Sometimes no trickery will work and the preset (for any of the Arturia instruments) does not load. VST2 is no problem and solid. Thoughts? Does a setting in Mixcraft 8 need to be tweaked?

Hi,

Which synths in the collection have you tried that display this problem?

As I said, all the Arturia synths display this behavior. The B3, Vox Continental, Farfisa, and Piano are the worst. And the Synclavier. V Collection is about 18 different instruments. Happens much less with the classic analogs, much more with piano and organ instruments. Never happens with VST2s.

Hi,

I'm glad I asked, because I didn't run into the problem with the CS-80 V3 at all, but it was easy to reproduce with the B3. Thanks for reporting this!

For now, it seems like switching back and forth in the presets is a good workaround, or just use the VST2 versions of the plugins.

Okay, thanks. Is this Arturia or Mixcraft trouble I wonder...

Hi,

It's likely some combination of the two, because I can switch presets in other VST3 virtual instruments without problems.
