I need advice. In CB14, Media, I have a list of Loops & Samples for guitar, drums, and other instruments. In several of the files, i.e., Pro Drums 80s, a list of samples appears however they are inactive. I cannot hear any sound unless it is from an audio file. The list starts with a minus sign and then the name of the sample. How can I activate the sounds? Thank you. Frank.
Hey Frank -
This typically means that you’ve either downloaded a library which you don’t own, or where you’ve not successfully activated the library post-purchase.
I think all SDA users have at one time or another seen a library in the “All products” section and mistakenly downloaded it as opposed to only the libraries/products in your “My products” section.
If you purchased Pro Drums 80s as part of the Pro Drums Bundle, then you should see a reference to it in your Steinberg Activation Manager, and can “Activate” it. If you happened to download it by mistake, you’ll need to purchase it or just removed the Bundle with the Steinberg Library Manager.
