        Hi All,

        I recently purchased the H910 Harmonizer, however only the VST2 version is available in my DAW (Cakewalk).  I have a few other Eventide plug-ins and they are not showing up either.  I have done the registration and iLok activation, as well as the VST scan in Cakewalk, but the VST3 version of the H910 is a no show.

        Any ideas why?

        Thanks in advance.

        Kind regards,

        Living Room Rocker

          Hello Living Room Rocker, 

          Can you please check that all the VST3 plug-ins are "enabled" in the Cakewalk Plug-in Manager?

          You can follow the instructions in this video: https://youtu.be/BFFLIQPn3DM?t=65

          Let me know if that solves your issue.

            Hi Tyler,

            Thanks for the response.  That’s the thing, they don’t show up in under the VSTi3 section of CW’s Plug-in Manager.  Only the VST2s show in the VSTi section.

            Kind regards,

            Living Room Rocker

              Let me correct myself and point out, I meant VST3 and VST respectively and not VSTi3 and VSTi.

              My apologies,

                Hi Tyler,

                I did another installation on top of the current VST3 install and it took this time.  The H910 now shows under the effects.  Sorry for the trouble.

                Kind regards,

                Living Room Rocker

                    I hate ilok. Nothing but problems. My plugin is registered but on eventide it shows up with 0 activations, the plugin does not show up anywhere in reaper or davinci resolve 20. I have uninstalled spring and pace and reinstalled 3-4 times.

                      I experienced a similar issue in Ableton Live. I installed Shimmer and (I think because of some problems with the activation) the VST3 was not visible. Multiple reinstalls didn’t help either. It was visible in Reaper though.

                      My fix was to quit live, delete Live’s plugin database and start it again (https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000794970-Resetting-Live-s-Database).

                      I deleted all files, but I guess the plugin database would have been enough.

                      After that is rescanned all plugins and all versions of the Eventide plugins were there.
