drumjack52Olof…….
Every time I open Cubase 12 Pro the SD3 plugin will not work until I actually go into it. If I press play in Cubase everything plays except SD3. I have no other plugins that behave like that. Because they have more sense than to destroy the users work flow with their product. I have been using Steinberg VST SDK for years. I have moved two products to VST3 in the last 19 months. I don’t accept that this added nagging splash screen needs to there for any of the reasons you gave. IT IS ANNOYING! That is why no one else is crazy enough to release stuff like this.

You do know of all the people who have posted in this thread that you’re the only one seeing this supposed problem right? Are you seeing this before or after messing about with the VST SDK?

drumjack52Thanks for the explanation but it’s still a gross error to have this splash screen. You could have given the end user the ability to disable the splash screen. SD3 was MUCH better without it.

drumjack52Please remove the splash screen from sd3 plugin. This is a step back, against workflow.
At first I didn’t mind the splash screen but it’s beyond annoying now. PLEASE get rid of it now!

drumjack52I tried opening SD3 and navigating to that exterior hard drive before I even posted here …it still did not load the samples. I will get rid of that Everything But Sticks ….but I have used samples from it in some of the projects I want to have load on that Macbook Pro ….all on my main Mac Pro with no problems. So without it there …SD3 will not find them. As far as how I coped it ….I did it like I always do …simply attached the external hard drive to my Mac Pro and dragged the folder over to the External hard Drive. I did not use Migration assistant.

That should work but first as a test remove that extra folder and see if/how things work. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – if you STILL have issues grab Carbon Copy Cloner – it’s something you should have to begin with to make backups of your working system. Backups will save you for when (not if but when) you have problems. With CCC you don’t need to clone a whole drive but only certain parts. In this instance you’d clone the contents of the original folder for your core library to the second drive.
One of the first troubleshooting steps is to pare back anything that was added after an initial install so you get back to ‘factory fresh’ condition.

drumjack52Everything but sticks is a sample library from another source than Toontrack .. from which I can drop in individual samples into SDX if I want to. I can’t imagine that would be preventing SDX from recognizing the SDX library on my MacBook Pro. My Mac Pro has no trouble with it. So other than that …the SDX library on that external drive appears correct? If so …anyone have an idea why SDX on my Macbook does not find the samples with all the info I have given? Thanks….

I’d suggest moving that ‘everything but sticks’ folder out of the Toontrack folder. Just because you think it works on your other drive doesn’t mean it’ll work on the second drive. There’s no reason to have that folder in your Toontrack core library folder.
You shouldn’t have to redownload everything to the other system. Something just occurred to me – you’re not using OSX Migration Assassin (Assistant) to move the core library are you? Either use target mode or Carbon Copy Cloner. How exactly are you doing the copy?

drumjack52Thanks …the folder is called SDX Library. Attached is a screen shot of what is in it. It is the only SDX Library I can find on my stsem …and everything in it is the same as everything on my main studio hard drive. Your help is greatly appreciated.

What is that ‘everything but sticks’ folder? I don’t have that folder in my SD3 core library folder. Because I have three libraries (the core library and Death and Darkness) I created a folder on my Samples drive (yes I have a totally separate ssd for all my samples) called Toontrack. I used the Toontrack installer program to install the content to that Toontrack folder. The path is: Toontrack/SL-SuperiorDrummer3/ and then all the same folders you shows except for that ‘everything but stocks’ folder.
edit for additional: check the folder permissions

Didn’t address the rest though.Anyone from Toontrack willing to kick in and help solve this riddle/

Again I ask – how much ram do you have and where are your samples stored? Basic info which may or may not point to the cause. But it sure would help.

drumjack52BSOD?
As mentioned, 2 projects are suffering from this.
They will load up, then as soon as the track is played, SD3 crashes, a dump file is created, then Ableton follows.

BSOD – blue screen of death. A Google search will explain it better than I can but it’s something that can happen when Windows goes into failure mode.
How much ram do you have? Are you loading everything from SD3 into ram? Try deleting SD3 from the session, restart your daw and try the session again without SD3. If that works then you know it’s SD3 related. Where are your samples – system drive or a separate drive? Is said drive an ssd?

drumjack52You should never have to download twice. You can put the samples wherever you like and point sd3 towards them.
He’s going to have a second computer as a backup so your suggestion won’t quite work. I’ve never done this but could working in target mode work here?

Thanked by: Braddrumjack52A bit more help from you would help like what are you doing when you’re getting the crashes. Is your daw crashing? Are you getting the BSOD?

drumjack52In addition to what Brad wrote I’d suggest checking if you have the OSX firewall engaged. If so then disable it to do the download if you’d rather go that way. Something I do when I get downloads is to save them off to a completely separate external drive. That way I have them if/when needed and don’t have to muck around with downloading them again.

drumjack52We already have it! Why do I need a damn...We already have it! Why do I need a damn logo to remind me. Tell your marketing people to F*** O** and fix the crap they have caused. You have once again broken a working product because of madness. Every time I load my stuff the drums don’t work until I go into SD3. Are you actually adults!

Take it easy – no one else is seeing the problem you’re supposedly having. I’d suggest taking this up with Toontrack tech support.

drumjack52I just did the update and it’s working just fine – not seeing the issues the OP is talking about. Then again he’s on Windows and Brad and I are on some version of OSX.

drumjack52Is there a changelog that shows what’s been changed in this update (and what operating system is required)? I ask because I’ve run into other developer’s products that require an OSX later than High Sierra OSX 10.13.6.

Here’s a link to all the recent release notes.

Thanks – no change to operating system supported or required.
Question: if this update has an issue like what the OP is talking about can I re-install the earlier version?
