Instruments not loading into ST4 [Resolved]

Postby vac713 » Fri Feb 28, 2020 3:20 pm

Just installed ST4 on my MacBook (Mojave). Installed all the sounds (ST3, ST4, MP2, and Syntronik) but when I open ST4, the sounds don't show up. Didn't have this issue on my desktop.... Any ideas?

Double-check the path(s) in ST4's Preference Settings and where the various libraries are installed.

THanks Darkstar
I directed the settings to users/shared/IKMultimedia/Sampletank3 and Sampletank4
Do I need to go deeper?

I'm seeing the Libraries in the leftmost columns (SampleTank 4 Max, Sampletank 3, Miloslav, Syntonk….) but when I select one of them, nothing appears in the categories column like on my desktop

Just checking...you got these set as two individual pathways in ST4? So, in the sound content tab it shows:

users/shared/IKMultimedia/Sampletank3
users/shared/IKMultimedia/Sampletank4

If that is the case they should all show up. Maybe hit Rescan All to see if it needs to index the sounds again.

The default folder when the instruments were loaded was not correct. Don’t know why, I didn’t direct it there. Strange

Furthermore, when I tried directing it to the incorrect folder, that didn’t allow the instruments to be loaded properly. Had to reinstall all sounds

That is very strange, but I'm glad you've got it all sorted now.
