Xpand! 2 has gone missing
I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8, Mbox2 pro, Pro Tool 8.5 I recently had to have my Mac formatted back to Snow Leopard after making the big mistake of updating to Yosemite! In doing so I had to reinstall my Pro Tools which had been upgraded from ver 7 to 8.5, with the original upgrade I had a free upgrade of Xpand! to Xpand! 2. This is a nice plug in which I used quite a bit. Now Expand! 2 does not show up in my Instrument drop down menue, but Expand! does. I can see the Xpand2.big file in the Pro Tool Creative Collection on my hard drive but I can't seem to make it work! HELP....

Re: Xpand! 2 has gone missing
Hi
Can you look and see if you have the Xpand2! plugin in this folder: "XPand!2.aaxplugin" should be in /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins and report back. Also chech this webpage: http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/t...-Tools-install Best Regards Christopher

Re: Xpand! 2 has gone missing
Hi there, Xpand2 is not at the end of the "XPand!2.aaxplugin" /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins chain.
I did find: Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools Creative Collection/Xpand2/Zpand2.big I had a look at the link that you attached http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/t...-Tools-install and was wondering can I reinstall Pro Tools 8 over top of my existing copy making sure that I have the Creative Collection option enabled and will that then overwrite Xpand! giving me Xpand2? Thank you for your help. |

Re: Xpand! 2 has gone missing
Yes I would definately do a reinstall. Run the installer again and make sure you have every option you need ticked. Let us know how you get on,
Best Regards Christopher

Reinstall was successful. I now have Xpand2 back. I didn't realize how much I had come to rely on it. Thank you for your help. Cheers.
