VST Questions
« on: October 26, 2024, 04:01:58 pm »

Posted this by mistake earlier this week to the MC 31 list......sorry, this applies to MC33. Hoping a quick fix is possible. Hope to use JRiver at CanJam 2024 in Dallas next week.

New user trying to use a VST3 plug-in that does instantiate and play properly in MC33.

Issue:
The plug-in 'adjustment capability' is mechanized through the selection of a preloaded Preset file from those that were 'installed', placed into the proper folder. Can't find a way to select the VST3 style Preset file from those that were installed.

Detailed Problem:
When I try to select a Preset file for the VST3 Plug-in, a window opens up if the user wants to browse to find the Preset file. However, a 'preset' file type is already set as XXX.dsp, with no apparent option to either change the file type from which to pick, or simply look through all of the possible Preset file types to find the one that matches the desired plug-in preset type.

Current result:
The VST3 plug-in Presets are not possible to be selected, so what am I missing in trying to change the plug-in preset type from XXX.dsp to YYY.vst3 to allow me to select a desired Preset and continue to select them during play, to zero in on the Preset I want for the type of music I am playing?  Thanks in advance for suggestions for how to fix this situation.

VST here:  https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/DSP#VST_Versions

I'll split this to a new thread.

I followed the instructions in the VST plug in section from the re-posted thread list, and had actually looked there before posting.

I am no better off if I select a VST3 from the list, or select if from hitting the manage etc. button to select a VST3 plug that way......I still can not get an option to load a vstpreset type preset file instead of a dsp type file.

I can save some Preset values if I adjust them from the SCC GUI, by using the window to save presets located above the GUI. But when I try to load an xxxx.vstpreset from the Load window / browse below the GUI, I still am not allowed to select any Preset file except those that end in xxxx.dsp. I have tried simply renaming the xxxxx.vstpreset file to have a .dsp extension, but that does not work.

So, still needing help with how to load a vstpreset file from the Browse option. I do see in some of the earlier 2020 and 2022 posts that at one time there were multiple options for file types to pick from when browsing and loading a Preset file, but with the current release there just is only the xxx.dsp option in the pull down.....and it can not be overridden, at least as nearly as I can tell.

Please point me to a post that addresses how to select vstpreset files, instead of being forced into only a dsp type Preset file. Thanks for the help in advance......
