DAW Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting: Ableton Live

Option 1:

In Ableton 10 - downloaded for Apple Silicon

“It appears that the package has not installed the VST entirely. It doesn't show up in any Plug-In component folder and there's no trace of DAACI products except the original installation file.”

Answer: 

In Ableton version 10 you need to download and install the Intel version of the plugin regardless of whether your machine is Intel or ARM.

Option 2:

Make sure you have enabled the VST3 scanning in your Ableton Plug-In configuration. Go to your preferences and see that the "Use  VST3 Plug-In System Folders" is enabled.

 

This option is by default disabled.

Troubleshooting: Logic Pro

 

I can’t see the plugin in Logic?

Please check our getting started guide for using N-Drums in Logic here.

If you still can’t see the plugin the next step is to try restarting your computer as there is a known issue with Logic not displaying the plugin after initial installation on some machines. 

 

I downloaded the program but the plugin does not appear anywhere on my device or DAW.

I can’t hear any sound in the instrument version of Natural Drums when using plugin in plugin?

Make sure that the track with N-Drums on is record enabled. This is not necessary for the internal kits but is necessary when using 3rd party plugins within N-Drums.
