Topic: Can't install REAQ 32-bit VST Plug-in (Read 7704 times)

MC20 won't install this 32bit VST plug-in from Reaper. I have installed others such as Voxengo's Marvel EQ. Is there some criterion other than 32-bit for VST plug-ins that prevents some of them from being installed?

Bump...
I am having this issue as well. Seem none of the reaplugs plugins work..I am trying to load reagate to block subsonic frequencies with no joy. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I don't understand it. I thought if it was a .vst plugin it met certain specs to be .vst and should work in JRiver. I suppose either JRiver or Reaper is varying from the .vst spec.

I also tried the REAQ 32-bit VST plugin and couldn't get it to work.

Do you know of another alternative plugin that does parametric EQ graphically? We really need a graphical interface to work effectively with EQ.

This isn't really what you're asking for, but I often use a free program called rephase to "model" my parametric EQ filters, and then dial them into JRiver's native PEQ. Rephase is notionally for designing convolution filters, but it includes a nice GUI that will model EQ filters for you so you can see what they look like, and then you can transcribe them into JRiver.

A native GUI for the PEQ has been on my wishlist for a while.

Thanks. I'll look at it. But I want realtime feedback from a direct plugin.

There seems to be quite a few of us having this issue with MC....is anyone on the development team able to clarify what is causing the issue with Reaplugs vst? The JS plugins load fine...very strange.

Would you be willing to send me a copy of the plugin? I'm matt at jriver dot com. I'll erase it as soon as I'm done testing.

Thanks.

They are free, and you can download them from here:

Well I downloaded it, added it to MC, and it seems like it's working great.

So what's the problem?

muzicman0 · « **Reply #11 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:37:11 pm »

I'll test it here as well...I haven't tried it, I just knew about it from my Recording hobby.

muzicman0 · « **Reply #12 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:39:55 pm »

I get a failed to install also. Did you install to the default directory? Did you move the .dll somewhere else?

muzicman0 · « **Reply #13 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:41:20 pm »

I tried moving the .dll to my documents folder, and it still failed. I am on Win 8.1 x64 if it matters.

Yes. It installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\VSTPlugins\ReaPlugs\

I added the plugin reajs.dll to MC.

muzicman0 · « **Reply #15 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:44:57 pm »

I only installed the ReaEQ, and it is reaeq-standalone.dll. The Reajs is a different plugin...

Matt · « **Reply #16 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:51:02 pm »

I'm not sure reaeq-standalone.dll is a VST effect. It might be a stand-alone DSP used in something else.

muzicman0 · « **Reply #17 on:** June 11, 2015, 12:58:05 pm »

no, they are all VST...the stand alone just means that it isn't bundled with the primary software package (Reaper). I have used it before in other DAW's.

I will see if I can verify that, since I could possibly be mis-remembering...

Matt · « **Reply #18 on:** June 11, 2015, 01:02:34 pm »

Next build:
Fixed: Some VST effects couldn't be installed.

I think it'll all be sorted once the build goes live. Testing appreciated.

muzicman0 · « **Reply #19 on:** June 11, 2015, 01:05:50 pm »

You must have figured it out, but I did verify that it is a VST plugin.

stevendethick · « **Reply #20 on:** June 11, 2015, 05:23:40 pm »

Cheers, Matt!
Great to know these will work soon.
Many thanks!

If you need multi-channel, then get Voxengo Gliss EQ. It isn't free, though. You can use it for free in demo mode and the sound cuts out for a second or so every few minutes. Once you figure out your filters you can enter them in JRiver and turn off Gliss EQ.

I would like it JRiver had a graphical interface for their filters on JRemote. Then you could adjust from your chair using a tablet.

Yes, like that. Too bad there isn't a Mac version.

I would want the paid version because I would want to EQ individual recordings so a static set-and-forget EQ wouldn't work.

Yes, yes and yes on the remote EQ!

The Reaper plug-in works now. Thanks Matt!
