Mini Grand Woes
Fairly novice and sporadic user here working on Mac, PT 2021.6. Back in 2018 I purchased a Mini Grand Full License. My vague recollection is that it worked.
However, after a several year hiatus, I tried to use it again but it no longer appeared on my instruments list. I had upgraded to PT 2021.6, so I opened up Avid Link and re-downloaded version 18.1 of Mini Grand. However, when I try to install it, I get a message that it is incompatible with my version of Mac (Big Sur 11.4). After some digging, I got to the Air Music Technology page where it says that I need a new version for Big Sur. OK. I download this and attempt to install it - it seems to install, but then for some incomprehensible reason it makes me add it to my iLok. OK - I do that - but in iLok it says I only have a trail version which expires at the end of the month. Nonetheless I gamely open up PT again - but Mini Grand is nowhere to be found. Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions. Last edited by eheilner; 08-12-2021 at 11:38 AM. |

Re: Mini Grand Woes
The latest version on the Air Music site states the following:
Compatible with AU and VST only. (AAX version available in AIR Creative Collection) If this is what you have, then this is the reason it does not show up in PT as you need the AAX version. |

Re: Mini Grand Woes
Thank you junkgear & unkJE. As it turns out, I found an alternate solution - I was able to get my Pianoteq plugin working.

Re: Mini Grand Woes
Glad to hear you found a way to get your project going.
For the record... Mini Grand is installed by the AIR Instruments Bundle installer (included with Pro Tools and Pro Tools Ultimate from my.avid.com/products > Pro Tools > VIEW... -or- Avid Link). Current version installed is v1.2.1082e5fd3 which I just checked on Catalina & Big Sur - working great here. See avid.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/Troubleshooting/Virtual-Instruments-missing-after-Pro-Tools-install for more info.
