Subject:AP5 and Sampletank 2 XL

Hi,

Just installed the V5 demo. My sampletank 2XL VST gets recognised as "Sampletank2 1" I have no idea where the "1" comes from but it means that I cant load any AP4 files I have because they are are all looking for a VST called "Sampletank2". Any advice ?

In all my other apps the VST is simply recognised as Sampletank2

Any thoughts ?

Regards
Paulie

Look on the VST Instruments tab under Options > Preferences on the menu bar. Is Sampletank listed once under there?

MD

Yes just once "Sampletank2 1" in the name column. I do also have sampletank 1 installed but all my other hosts (including AP4) are Ok with this.

Is it a coincidence that this is the naming convention used for Sampletank as a multi output VSTi in the mixer panel Sampletank2 1, Sampletank2 2 etc ?

Could be. Still, it's odd thats the way it shows up in the VST Instruments list. Try contacting IK Multimedia and/or Madison Media yet?

I have found a second copy of sampletank2 installed on my machine. c:\program files\sampletank2\backup\sampletank2.dll.

If Acid 5 finds a second instance of the VSTi here would it indeed rename the second instance to Sampletank2 1.

My AP5 demo has expired, I wonder if anybody can confirm this for me ?

Thanks
Paulie

That could be the case, but I don't know how ACID would find that VSTi DLL in that particular location unless you told ACID where it exactly was.
