Retrologue on Ableton Live ?

Virtual instruments
1

Hi,

I already have a license of Halion Sonic since last year and use it with Ableton Live without any problems.

Now i bought a license of Retrologue and thought it would work also, but i can’t make it work, live does not see it in the Plugins section. I’ve researched and it seems Live does not support VST3 plugins and Retrologue is a VST3 plugin.

Is there a way to run Retrologue as a usual VST plugin or i just lost 49 bucks ?

Thanks !

Update Retrologue to 1.1

Hi

I’m already using 1.1.0.134. Only the VST3 file shows up in my Plugins directory, and this one is not supported by Ableton Live.

Any other idea ?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Just to add an information : i’m on a Mac, not Windows.

I don’t think a VST2 version installs on a mac.
I think you need to use the AU version (which should have installed with the 1.1 update).

Hi,

Where can i find information about how to use AU version ? I always used VSTs, have no experience with AU.

Thank you !

I’m not sure.
The Ableton Live manual should give some detail.

But I’m not exactly sure. I’ve never used a Mac or Ableton Live.

Hi,

I could solve the problem by selecting the ‘Use audio units’ option in Live preferences; now the synths shows up in my plugins section.

Thanks !
