I am using ableton live lite which on the website shows it supports vst plugins. I have set up custom folders and pointed ableton to them and re scanned multiple times, i have re installed plugins multiple times to different locations to try to fix the problem nothing worked. The only plugins that show up are plugins that have a .vst3 extension any .dll plugins whether it is 32 or 64 bit will not show up in ableton no matter what i try, i have tried the articles on the help website and tried all the steps i have wiped my entire system and did a clean install and tried the steps above to see if it was an external process that was interfering but i still have the same problem no .dll plugin will load no matter where i put it no matter where i install no matter what i do it does not show up in ableton, i have no idea what to do. The website only provides support for intro, standard and suite so i am out of luck.
To get Serum up and running in Ableton you need to check Ableton's AU/VST settings. Navigate to: Ableton. File and Folder (all Live versions until 10.1) /Plug-ins (Live 10.1 and later) Make sure 'Use AudioUnits/VST' are all checked and hit Rescan. Windows users will only have the option 'VST Plugin Custom Folder', manually.
