Core MIDI Pack Installation issue

[Rattercrash]

Hey guys,

I tried searching for answers before this post, but can’t find anything helpful.

So I downloaded and installed SD3, but the installation of the Core MIDI pack does not resolve. After the finished installation, the Product Manager still tells me to install the upgrade, and SD3 has an empty Groove tab in my DAW (Cubase 8.5). I can find the MIDI files in the explorer, but copying it into the default folders does not resolve the issue – SD3 tells me that “No EZX or MIDI libraries were found in the selected folder”.

Anybody had similar issues?

(btw: turning it off and on again didn’t work either)

Do you get the same behavior with the Standalone S3?

Funny enough, the Standalone seems to be gone… Maybe the Manager removed it with the installation files? Windows told me the file is no longer there, and the .exe is not in the installation folder…

In the manager, Installation Status is “Installed”…

The PM cleanup would only remove it if it was installed into the same folder location it was downloaded to.

Try uninstalling the plugin (not the sounds), and reinstalling.

Scott,

I’ve recently purchased a new 16′ mbp and in the process of setting up all apps, etc.   I’m now onto SD3.  All my sounds are on an external drive and I recently downloaded the SD3 program.  When launching it, I received the error message “no EZX’s or MIDI libraries were found in the selected folder”

When you say “try uninstalling the plugin” what exactly are you referring to?  Uninstalling the SD3 program?

Do I even need these libraries?

Thanks in advance.

The product manager should detect that your MIDI is missing. You can then download the update through the PM (it’s not very big) and have it install the MIDI.

Looking at your screenshot it says that your MIDI has not been installed yet. Did you hit the red button?
