I added 2 instances of Opus for winds and brass. Then I added 1 instance of Play for Violin II. Exported the audio, saved and closed. Every time I try to open, Dorico stops responding and I have to force quit. At one point I received a pop up message that there was something up with the e-licensor but I am not sure why I am getting that. All my libraries are paid for. Any ideas?
UPDATE
Now none of my dorico files are opening. Things that don’t even use the opus or play instances. Any ideas on how to get Dorico working again?
EastWest Opus and Play 6 don’t work well for me directly in Dorico.
My solution is to either roll back to Play 5, or run the VST2 versions of Opus or Play6 inside Bidule instances.
I’ve run the 5.0.1 version through some tests with good results (word-builder for choirs and such worked too). I think the major difference between the two is that the 5.0.6 one includes a VST3 variant as well (which I have not had a chance to test yet). Might need to be white-listed in Dorico’s plugin settings.
To use, unintall Play 6 first. Play 5 and Play 6 keep their user files in different locations, and they don’t get wiped when using the installers to roll back and forth. So, swapping around is easy enough. Unintall the current one with your OS installer manager, run the installer for the one you want to use.
You can leave Opus alone. No need to uninstall it or anything. I’ve not had much luck using it (VST3 nor VST2) directly in Dorico. Word builder doesn’t work at all, and other issues pop up (sticky notes for one, they never stop playing)…ESPECIALLY when trying to export to audio…
Hi @cellier_jerome , maybe Play is blacklisted on your system.
Please do from the menu Help > Create Diagnostics Report and post the corresponding zip file here. Thanks
Hi @cellier_jerome , thanks for the data and yes, Play is blacklisted with you.
But not only Play, also tons of other VST3 plug-ins are blacklisted with you, have a look at the file
/C:/Users/jecel/AppData/Roaming/Steinberg/Dorico 4 AudioEngine_64/Dorico 4 AudioEngine VST3 Cache/vst3blacklist.xml
The reason for the blacklisting, I don’t know. Do you have the latest version(s) and all properly installed?
You can enforce a re-scan of the VST3s by deleting that “Dorico 4 AudioEngine VST3 Cache” folder and restarting Dorico.
Ho Thank you ! now I have all my VST3 Play and Sine player ! I think it was because the first time I opened Dorico Cubase pro 12 was opened before.
Best Regards
