EZkeys 2 – Upgrade (2.0.5)

[Barry Halpin]

Has anyone had this problem:

I have been using EZkeys 2 (2.0.1) for some time now with out any problems.

Logged onto Product Manager (1.1.4) and ran EZkeys 2 – Update and EZkeys 2 Core Library (as prompted by PM).

All downloads and installs went through without any errors (PM shows all products up to date).

Opened Logic (9.1.8) and now NO EZkeys 2 (and not showing within Logic AU Manager).

Then deleted cache (/Library/Caches), Reboot and opened Logic again (which then ran a full re-scan) but still no EZkeys 2

EZkeys 2 (2.0.5) runs as a standalone, but now showing within Logic.

Mac Pro 2012 / OSX 10.11.6 (highest version for this Mac and Logic)

Any Advise?

 

 

EZkeys version: 2.0.5
Operating system: OS X El Capitan (10.11)

does logic have a “plugin scan” that needs to be run?

EZkeys version: 2.0.5
Operating system: Windows 11

Hi Glenn,

I have deleted /Library/Caches, which forces a re-scan of all plugins when Logic is opened.

I’m not sure if this is crucial, but the original (2.0.1) EZkeys 2 component file was set to directory ‘barry’ (which is my Home directory, with Read-Write permissions).

After upgrading to EZkeys 2 (2.0.5) the new EZkeys 2 component file is now set to ‘root’ (/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components).

Regards

Barry

i’d move that to your ‘barry’ directory then as the root might not be in the scanning path

I’m wondering why Logic was looking for EZ Keys in your home folder in the first place. The system area (root) is where it should be installed.

Hi Jord, I have ran the command: ls -al /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components (from Terminal)

Saved and opened the resultant text file and all Toontrack plugins are set to ‘barry’, in fact all my plugin components (Waves, Kontakt etc. are set to ‘barry’)

My original EZkeys 2 (2.0.1) was also set to ‘barry’ (Home folder) and has been working fine for a long time, only after upgrading to EZkeys 2 (2.0.5) as prompted within Toontrak Product Manager is the new component file now set to ‘root’.

I am not sure if this is the problem, it is something that i have noticed.

Many thanks for your input.

Barry.

Hi Glen, I thought about that (moving the new EZkeys 2.component file from ‘root’ to ‘barry’ but unfortunately i don’t know how to do that.

Seems a logical thing to do though

Regards

Barry
