Is SD3 AU supported in UAD's LUNA DAW?

Hi, Is SD3 AU supported in UAD’s LUNA DAW and...

Hi,

Is SD3 AU supported in UAD’s LUNA DAW and if so is there something specific that needs to be done to have SD3 show up inside UAD LUNA?

Neither SD3 or EZkeys show inside LUNA v1.0.0 or v1.0.1 from what I can see and I’m hoping that there may be a work around or that I am missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Ben

Seeing as you mentioned you we’re running Cubase previously. The AU version might never have been validated. Try opening GarageBand and have it run the AU validation (that’s the easier way – you can run auval from the Terminal) and see if that helps.

Thanks folks, all sorted now…I’m sure Jord was correct  in saying that using Cubase until now there was no need to have SD3 run as AU only as VST.

An SD3 update was available (which didn’t seem to be an option a few days earlier) which did the trick…SD3 now appears in my Components list and shows up in Luna, my problem is solved!

Thanks all..

For those wishing to use SD3, in a multitrack way, in Luna – as it now supports Core Audio.

I just started using this method. It’s a work around to a multi-out instrument (that is not available in Luna). You will need a digital audio interface. I use an RME Digiface USB.

Launch SD3 in Standalone Multi-Out mode.

Assign the 16 SD3 stereo channels to the 32 outs of the RME Digiface USB.

Loop back the ADAT OUTS in to the ADAT INS, of the Digiface.

In Apple’s Audio MIDI Setup, select (use) the Digiface.

Launch Luna, turn on Core Audio.

Create 16 STEREO Audio Tracks, in Luna. Assgin to corresponding 32 Digiface ADAT channels, in pairs, to these audio tracks.

Voila! Multitrack SD3 is available.

I can play SD3 from my V-Drums into multi-channel Luna. Can also do multitrack/channel from my TD-27 into Luna.

When I do this in Logic, I set the SD3 mixer levels to “0 (zero)”, and mix in Logic. Apparently, you can now do this in Luna.

Still need a multi-out instrument for Luna!!!
