Jan 19, 2011 If you have a 64-bit operating system, the ideal situation is to run a 64-bit DAW with 64-bit plugins. I don't know how this stuff works on Mac but on Windows, the operating system has to do a lot of extra work under the hood to be able to run 32-bit apps. The answer depends mainly on your 3rd party VST library. 32 Bit plugins work best in FL Studio 32 Bit and 64 Bit plugins work best in FL Studio 64 Bit. Because of this, we recommend you load projects made in FL Studio 32 Bit and 64 Bit in their respective native versions. Personally if running a 64 bit OS, I'd run a 64 bit version of Cubase. Then try to bridge any of my 32 bit plugins & VSTi's. If fact, that's what I'm doing now, but with very limited VSTi's. I only went 64 bit OS/64 bit Cubase about a year ago, so most every VSTi & plugin I have are 32 bit, with a couple/few exceptions.

Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins |
Post: #1 |
| Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins I've built up a reasonable collection of plugins I like to use for various things. However, they don't come up in my plugin manager, even though the directory they are installed to is definitely included in my VST paths. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Or is it simply Mixbus isn't compatible with a number of plugins? These aren't ones tied to another DAW. |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins Hi there, This has ben a common issue and there are several things you can try. I had hoped this was no longer happening in 5, but it's been happening to me in 3 and 4, but it's an easy fix. I assume the plugins are compatible. If you are using 64bit MIxbus only 64bit plugins will work, VST3 won't work (as far as I know) etc. The first thing you can try is to flush your cache from mixbus. Go to EDIT -- PREFERENCES -- PLUGINS -- VST and hit clear cache and clear blacklist. Then try reloading. Try this a couple of times if it doesn't work with restarts. If that does not work you can try opening/creating a session in a different bitrate and clear cache/reload plugins. This worked well for me in v3. |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins Well that explains it. I'm using 64 bit, but I believe the ones not showing up are 32 bit. Makes me wonder why other DAWs can use both? |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins Which MB do you use? Have you used these plugs in another daw and worked? Now MB is more friendly with plugs it threw on blacklist in earlier versions. Some new, though may be considered 'black' by MB. Win7/64, Mixbus32C latest, Mixbus2.5 the King UR22, Dynaudio BM5A MKII, Pc all SSD, Can you name some because if we have and works in ours it is not an MB problem. You may ask Harrison for a 32 bit MB version then you will see what the problem is, if any. Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/the-crazy-fingers, Youtube videos: Mixbus Mix Studio by Tassy |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins I'm using Mixbus 5 (not the 32c version). The ones I've noticed I can't use are Sonitus reverb (bundled with Sonar, but not locked to it), the REplugs collection downloaded from the Cockos website and the Kjaerhaus classic series. I'm using Mixbus v5 (not the 32c version). The main ones which come to mind are the Sonitus Reverb (bundled with Sonar but not locked to it), the REplugs from Cockos and the Kjaerhaus Classic series. These all work in 64 bit versions of Sonar/Cakewalk and Reaper. |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins No the Kjaerhaus ones are all 32 bit, which is probably why my Mixbus isn't finding them! |

| RE: Mixbus doesn't find a load of my plugins I have used 32bit version of Mixbuses for years since 2.0 because did not want to lose my 32 bit plugs. No difference from 64 bit only in tall tales, not even bets can hear the difference in practice nothing you can detect. Just some months ago I changed for 64 bit MB just for fun and experiment, and lost 30 plugins but in the meantime collected the 64 bit versions of other makes to replace them. There are some I still miss. A great pro friend of mine still uses 32bit 32C. Sounds fine. Win7/64, Mixbus32C latest, Mixbus2.5 the King UR22, Dynaudio BM5A MKII, Pc all SSD, Send a mail to Harrison for 32 bit exe and you can go on with your goto plugs.
