HI,
DAW: Acid pro 7c
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Quad core processor, 4gig ram, plenty of HD space great computer etc..
I initially installed the Ezmix 64bit version (successfully) to path: C:/program files/vst plugins. I usually select the program files (x86) option but this option was not available. (things seem to work when installed into the program files (x86) folder)
I Launch Acid pro 7, open my plugin manager and select the above file for a vst scan to load the plugin BUT the file was not recognized and did not show up in the vst plugin folder after scan. Note: I have installed other vst plugins before which work perfectly so I do know how this is done.
I then proceed to install the Ezmix 32bit version which offers the option to install into my preferred path (c:/program files (x86)/ vst plug-ins) where all my others are located.
I then launch Acid pro 7 again and re-scan the file in which the 32bit version was installed which happens to work! great! So after that i register my copy successfully and proceed to explore its functions which works perfectly and sounds great! After hours of work using Ezmix i save my project and close Acid which is when the problem begins 🙁
Example of problem.
I start a fresh project in Acid pro 7 and insert a wave file. I then apply Ezmix as an effect and select a preset (e.g Guitar) which all works perfectly. I then save my project and close Acid. I then relaunch Acid and open the project i was working on which is when the following error appears:
WARNING: An error occurred when loading a plugin or plugins. The plugin preset(s) could not be loaded. DETAILS: The user preset for Plug-in ‘EZmix’ could not be loaded. The default settings have been restored.
I then click Ok, and check to see what has happened. So I open up the Ezmix effect that I had previously applied to the wave file and the preset has reverted back to ‘Default’ (instead of Guitar).
So just to be clear on terminology, the presets are all available and working fine. the problem is that the SELECTED presets are not saving/ loading with the project when closed/ opened.
Other info: i tried again to install the 64bit version and I noticed that the path: C:/program files (x86)/ vst plug-ins/ has now become an available option so I then install it there, but the 64bit version still wont work.
I ran a test to see if I could replicate the issue using another DAW so I opened up Fruity Studio v9 and these are the results:
– 64 bit version does not work / not recognised
– 32 bit version works perfectly! – it even saves/ loads the pre selected presets to the project. No errors at all.
The problem with this is that I do not use fruity-loops as my DAW so until this issue can be fixed, Ezmix will have absolutely no use for me 🙁
please help!
