JonnyBGood Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 So... created an IK account, downloaded the authorisation manager, entered my serial for amplitude, managed to download it after several issues, installed and chose plugin directories but it doesn't show up as a Reaper plugin. The standalone app is accessible. Tried rescanning and rebooting Reaper, no help. Tried reinstalling Amplitube, multiple 'Can't create the following file or directory blah blah' messages, had to cancel installation Tried rebooting Windows. Nope. Hopeless.

I had this issue in Cubase, and it actually appeared under the plugin/distortion submenu. In Ableton, I can't find it at all though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you install the VST in whatever place Ableton looks for them? Or do you have a 32 Bit Ableton and the VST is 64? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 64 bit installed. Edited August 19, 2020 by Nicko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did you do an auto-install of Amplitude or direct it your Cubase Folder? I did the custom install and Ableton has no probs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When installing Amplitude I put the VSTs in the Cubase folders, and set ABleton to look there. Edited August 19, 2020 by Nicko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, got it working at last after installing into a different directory to my usualy plugin folder and also clearing Reapers plugin cache and rescanning. Phew that was **** hard work.

What about the DLLs? I tend to allow a custom install to put it's library type files in an eponymous new file in Documents. If it's not this I'd suggest your computer is broken as it couldn't possible be anything else 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyellowcar Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Glad I stumbled across this one! Bit of a faff, but worth the battle. Now I just need to figure out how to get the plug-in into GarageBand...! EDIT: this worked for me https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/how-to-get-amplitube-4-presets-to-appear-in-garageband/ Edited August 22, 2020 by theyellowcar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
