unable to load multiple VST's
Searched the forum, and found a similar issue with the solution being edit vstignore.ini. Tried that with no success. My log shows:

and on and on, but my vstIgnore.ini only has:
; The following VST effects will be filtered out
; - Format:
; Any Part Of Dll Name
; - or
; Any Part Of Dll Name.dll
; - Examples:
; BrokenFX (removes all effects with BrokenFX in their name)

ini doesn't have everything showing ignored in the log??? essentially it is only loading directx effects.
Any suggestions?

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Make a backup of the ini file and then remove everything below the last ;
Remove below the line: ; BrokenFX Super Reverb.dll (removes only BrokenFX Super Reverb.dll)
Then save the ini and then see if you have success....
Hope that helps

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Thanks dave, but didn't work.
If I have to reinstall anything I should do first to prepare regarding vst, plugins, projects, presets, saved loops, etc?

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Just re-install, the software don't uninstall anything and it should be fine. By the way, just to confirm, this is Mixcraft 6 you are having trouble with?Mab098157 wrote:Thanks dave, but didn't work.

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Yep 6 last build. Tried loading proximity plugin last night. Not sure if that is the culprit yet.

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Thanks for checking up Dave. I uninstalled and reinstalled from 6 build 199. After having issues with loading the next builds with no success I logged a support ticket. They gave me a link to build 217, but before trying that I performed a restore from 6/23. That did the trick. Now I have to figure out if a win 7 updated caused the issue and avoid it. Bottom line back working on tracks today. Frustration from missing several hours during the holiday is subsiding.

You are welcome. At least you have some indication to what is happening, and that the support guys are covering it to.

What issue are you having? What do you mean when you say you can't see any plugin locations?

None of my third party plugins are being loaded only the Acoustica Mixcraft ones even though my VST paths are OK....

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Hi,
Do you have "Load VST Effects and Instruments (VST/VSTi)" check marked in your Plug-Ins preferences?

Re: unable to load multiple VST's
Hi,
It's always good to check the simple stuff first. Send us your log file and we'll check it out.
Quit Mixcraft if it's running, then send us your mixcraft-log.txt file, which is located in this folder:
%appdata%\Acoustica\Mixcraft
Another way to find it is to click on the Windows Start Menu, select All Programs, then Acoustica Mixcraft 7 and finally Logs. Submit an Acoustica Support Request and attach the log file along with a brief description of the problem.
