Thanks for that link. Tip #4 was the charm. Holding down the Alt key makes it do a more thorough scan and it finally saw the 32-bit version of the dll. Unfortunately, all my IK Multimedia instrument VSTi’s remain invisible. Live only sees TRacks 3 Deluxe. Any clues there? heh, heh, I know but IK doesn’t have a forum.

I installed the 32 bit version on top of the 64 bit as per the instructions but Ableton still doesn’t recognise it.

Install expansion packs to the correct location. IOW, EZXs to the EZ folder.

Sorry Scott, I forgot to mention that BeatStation is my first Toontrack product so I don’t know what the “correct” location should be. Where should I point the expansion paks installers so that they can be used within BeatStation? The same directory to where I install the BeatStation content?

My D: drive is a secondary internal HDD. I’ll reinstall the BeatStation content in a folder called BeatStation I guess, but what about the EZX’s? This time I want to make certain that BeatStation sees them and that they show up in the appropriate subfolders in the browser. I noticed that there already exist categories for EZ and SD libraries.

Thanks again Scott. btw- is there some preferred syntax that I should use when naming the folder where the content is going to be installed? (I was going to create: D:Program FilesToontrack) The reason I ask is because I bought some expansion kits(Jazz and Electronic) and I want to make sure that they get installed correctly on that data drive.

Thanks for your prompt reply Scott. Do you think that perhaps instead of having to uninstall and then reinstall 1.63 GB of content and introducing fragmentation into my HDD I might be able to use the “repair” utility in the content installer? iow- I’ve created a folder “Toontrack” adjacent to where the content files where initially installed. If I where to drag these content folders into that folder and then run the repair function would the installer see that the files are already there once I point it to that folder and then give me the option to “skip” installation of the files?
Furthermore, why didn’t the alert message let me select where I had moved my content to when I tried this in standalone mode? When I navigated to where the content was it didn’t let me select the directory when I clicked on it. I even tried to type the the location manually but when I clicked “open” it just went back to the grey dialog box as if it didn’t recognize my selection?
