    The default location of a 64-bit Toontrack plug-in on a 64-bit system is
    C:ProgramFilesVstPluginsToontrack64bit.

    Cubase won’t find dlls automatically unless they install in Cubase’s default plugin folder. You should set that path in Cubase to the above location if the dlls are there.

    I have no vst folder under C:Program Files

    My folders are:

    C:Program FilesSteinberg (and the following folders Asio/Cubase 8.5 and VSTPlugins). Under Cubase 8.5 I have folders VST3/VSTPlugins and under the VSTPlugin I see the different dll-files including the before mentioned guitar amp sim plugin.

    I also have this:

    C:Program Files (x86)ToontrackSuperiorSuperior 2SL Avatar and SL Metal Foundry.

    No dll-file from Superior can be found on my pc when searching.

    Try running the plugin installer again. Not the sound installer but just the plug-in. It is version 2.4.4 and is 112 mb.

    Can I do that from the Product Manager?

    Yes. You should be able to browse to the S2 plugin and click in the details to see if it’s installed and then download and install if it isn’t.

    Just installed the 64bit at 112MB again. Nothing happened. Still the same paths on the C drive and no dll to be found anywhere. Everything in the Product Manager checks out and should be working. Ready to use is writen on all products.

    Can you download and install Toontrack Solo and open S2 there? Check the install path in Solo?

    Are you the Administrator on your computer? I don’t know why the installers aren’t writing the .dlls if you are. Perhaps turning off the UAC in Windows would help?

    I was able to open S2 in Toontrack Solo. All the expansions was selectable as well. I checked the install path, and it is: C:Program FilesToontrackToontrack Solo. Something “funny” happened though. I found the path C:Program FilesCommon FilesVST3Toontrack. And there is the beloved Superior Drummer.dll file. What to do with it? Should there be a dll-file for expansions as well or is it only the host “S2” or “EZ” which generates dll-files?

    Just the host, S2 or EZdrummer, will have a dll. Set the path to that S2 dll in Cubase.

    Start Cubase, open the Devices menu and select the entry Plug-in Manager. In the Plug-in Manager Settings window, click on the Add Path button (+).

    I am having the same issue. Tried this fix but no luck. Any further thoughts? Would it make a difference if I put the sound files on a different drive?

    The only file in C:Program FilesCommon FilesVST3Toontrack is the .dll

    Does that seem right?

    @GERGTON:
    Yes, the .dll file is the plugin file and not the sound library so that’s in order.
    So, what is your problem, then?
    If Cubase picks up that path like described above, the plugin should be available in Cubase.
    Can you load it? Do you get any error messages? If so, please post screen shots.

    BR,
