Hi,

What list are they showing in? Which version and build of Mixcraft are you using?

I am using mixcraft 9. They are shown In the vst pick list for instruments.. They are not shown up in the manage lists as having any problems.. Eg unable to load... Crash etc.
If I try to pick vst instrument, the hourglass wait appears briefly but that's all..
Thanks...

Hi,

The next time that happens, quit Mixcraft and send us your mixcraft-log.txt file.

To find the mixcraft-log file, highlight the following line and press Ctrl+C to copy it:

Code: Select all

%appdata%\Acoustica\Mixcraft\
Press the Windows Key+R to pop up the Run box in Windows. Click in the Run box and press Ctrl+V to paste in the line from above. Finally, click OK to go to the location of the mixcraft-log.txt file. Submit an Acoustica Support Request and attach the log file along with a brief description of the problem.

A few years ago I had issues with some vst3 version of Waves, downloaded and installed the vst2 and they worked fine. Waves Central is a pita. The 470 build of MC definitely helped with that.
