Hi Dave,

I got a suggestion for you, please try this:

The resources are the contents of the folder C:\ProgramData\Toontrack\Superior Drummer 3. Please remove/rename that “Superior Drummer 3” folder and run the 3.1.6 updater again. Removing them should make the updater repair the installation and install them.

BR,
John

 

 

This 100% worked!!  I simply did what John suggest by renaming the “Superior Drummer 3” folder to “Superior Drummer 3_old” and re-installed and it worked 100%!

 

Thank you all so much for helping me with this.  I sincerely appreciate your time and support.

 

Thanks again,

Kuba,

Good morning.  In Ableton 10, you would open the preferences and choose Plugins.  Make sure the path or paths that Ableton is where the Superior Drummer 3.vst is located.  ( Do a search on your hard drive (s) to verify this.  One your VST is located, make sure the path is correct in Ableton.  If not, browse and point to the fold where the VST resides.

After this is done, click the rescan button.  It should find it and then you can select Plugins on the far left column of Ableton and click the arrow beside VST and it should be under the “Toontrack” heading.  You can then drag it onto a MIDI track.

 

I hope this helps.

Good evening,

I opened Product Manager and looked within the Superior Drummer 3 – Upgrade    —> Details  —->  and found the following  ( I attempted the upgrade again)

Now the stand alone and the plugin show the following:

I did a search of all my hard drives and only found ONE Super Drummer 3.dll.  I am so lost.  I will go back with the older Superior Drummer 3.dll from my backup again to make it work in the mean time.

 

I just replace the current one in the same location and it works.   No idea why this is happening.

 

 

Thanks all,

 

Dave in Memphis

John,

Thank you very much for your response.  Could you assist me with what you are referring to when you said the following:

What does the PM say if you check the installation info of the plugin?

I just want to be sure to offer the answers to the questions you are asking.

 

Thanks again,

I had to use a backup of the Superior Drummer 3.dll  ( Version 3.1.4) and the Superior Drummer 3.exe product version 3.1.6 to get this to work again.

It opens fine now.  No idea what is going on but I really appreciate the help.

I am now able to open it in my DAW as well as the standalone with no issues. ( Version 3.1.4)

Thanks again everyone but now I am afraid to update again until I find a solution that will allow me to update the software.

 

Just for verification, I have read other solutions and I never found multiple “Superior Drummer 3.dll” files on my system.  Once I replaced my backup “Superior Drummer 3.dll” in the original  VST folder ( which has never changed) it started working immediately.

 

Thank you so much in advance,

I had to use a backup to install the Superior Drummer 3.dll file back to Product version 3.1.4  and the Superior Drummer 3.exe product version 3.1.6

It opens fine now.  No idea what is going on but I really appreciate the help.  I am afraid to update again to be quite honest.

Thanks again everyone.

Thank you both for your suggestions.  What if you only find ONE Superior Drummer 3.dll?  I have searched over and over for multiple instances and I find nothing but ONE.  My DAW points to the right folder as well.  I just don’t know what to do at this stage.

 

Anyone else having this issue?

 

Thanks again,

 

Dave
