SampleTank SE and BFD Plugins Not in Instrument Li

[Dondusko]

I have an Mbox 2 and ProTools LE 7.0 running on Windows XP Pro SP2. I have the full version of BFD. I used to use the DX and VST versions in another software. I tried to load the RTAS plugin; which seemed to work. However, it did not show up in the Instruments list. I also have the same problem with SampleTank SE.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are you using them on mono or stereo tracks?

Sorry that I wasn't clearer in my post. What happens is the Sampletank SE does not show up in the plugins list. I've since got BFD to show up, but I had to go back to a previous version.

Again, any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

What spkguitar was meaning is that some Virtual Instruments and Plug-ins only work on a mono track or a stereo track. Have you tried uninstalling SampleTank SE and re-installing it, watching out for the destination path.

Yes, I believe I did. I think it went to .../DAE/Plugins. What files should I see there?

Older versions of ST put it in the wrong place (well, it was the right place for older versions of PT).

It should be in <system drive>:\Program Files\Common Files\Digidesign\DAE\Plug-Ins and should install there by default with newer versions.

The system drive part is important; installing Pro Tools to a different drive than the system drive will cause problems.

Also, make sure you have the latest version of ST. It's available from the IK website.
