thanks will try.
anyone happen to have a link to offical steinberg how to do fresh install on their products on Mac?
the product i have on this daw are Cubase 10 pro, GA full, and then all the other SE type products can come with Cubase 10 pro. I mostly use Padshop and Halion SE. Does this entail trashing everything and having the download agent re-install everything ?
I finally managed to find time to fix it. I basically remove GA as well as any content and whatever else was part of GA and reinstalled.
Now GA behaves the same in both DAWs
That’s a lot of bother, but glad you got it sorted!
Just want to throw out a positive comment to say this maintenance update fixed all of my prior documented problems as intended. I appreciate the team’s effort here and look forward to seeing where y’all take Groove Agent in the future.
hi,
yesterday, via the steinberg download assistant application, I installed (or at least I clicked on “install” the update of cubase 13.0.41, Halion Sonic 7.1.0 - Instrument, Halion Sonic Selection - Content, Groove Agent SE 5 - 5.2.10 - Instrument and Groove Agent SE 5 - 5.2.10 - Content.
the update of cubase went well, but that of groove agent and Halion, I don’t think.
In my /User/username/downloads/Steinberg/OSX folder I have 5 folders:
Cubase 13.0.41 - Application (required): it contains a .dmg that has been installed
Groove Agent ONE: it contains “Groove_Agent_ONE_01.vstsound”, “Groove_Agent_ONE_02.vstsound” and “Groove_Agent_ONE_03.vstsound”
Groove Agent SE 5 - 5.2.10 - Instrument (recommended): it contains a dmg, but I don’t know which one has been installed because the groove agent SE in my application folder is still in version 3.5.10.607
Halion Sonic 7.1.0 - Instrument (recommended): it contains a dmg, but I don’t know which one has been installed because the groove agent SE in my application folder is still in version 3.5.10.646.
Sonic Selection: it contains “FCP_SMT_076_HSSE_Artist_Instrument_Preset_01.vstsound”
Thinking that the installation via SDA was automatic, like a macro and that by clicking on install, I had nothing to do and that the files would be placed in the right places and indexed correctly I put the whole folder in the string. But when I opened Steinberg Library Manager, the app displayed an error message that I did not save, but from memory it told me that files were missing (.vstsound I think).
So I dug a little into the subject and I see that a “Sonic Selection” tab is present (installed on July 17, so yesterday) in SLM with quite a few .vstsound files, but one is missing, the famous “FCP_SMT_076_HSSE_Artist_Instrument_Preset_01.vstsound”. Should I drag and drop it manually into /Library/Application Support/Steinberg/Content/Halion/VST Sound? Or into /Library/Application Support/Steinberg/Content/VST Sound? (because apparently Sonic Selection has dispatched these .vstsound files into two different folders). Regarding Groove Agent ONE and “Groove_Agent_ONE_01.vstsound”, “Groove_Agent_ONE_02.vstsound” “Groove_Agent_ONE_03.vstsound”, I don’t see anything in the groove agent tab of SLM. Is this normal?
What do you advise me please?
Hi mate. That is a rather complex set of steps, therefore it would be difficult to diagnose any such issues remotely. You can drag and drop some missing files, which may assist as that Halion file should be present it seems. I have had to do the same in the past for similar issues.
The GA tab should be populated and you should only have one content folder. The two locations appear to be the same according to your post. Just to note however, whilst the sound files reside in the respective instrument content folders, many of the .preset files reside in the folder simply named VST Sound. It is better if you can install via the automated method for this reason.
