So this finally worked for me. My DAW is Acid Pro 10 Suite and and was giving me the same issue. I tried more or less the same thing by going to View, check ✔️ Plug-in Manager, then going down to my explore bar to Configure VST. From there you need set the pathway to your .dll “superior drummer 3.dll” depending on what drive you installed it on if you have more than 1 drive other than C: drive. Also this worked because superior drummer was showing up as (VST 3) at first so when I went to set the pathway for the .dll a second vst showed up that didn’t have (VST 3) and that worked as my plugin. No more “audio engine inactive”.
FYI stand alone app worked for me just fine, it didn’t work as a plugin until now. I appreciate your post from 2019. 😮💨
