How to use VST Digital Performer 3.11? HELP!!!

(1/2) > >>

bkellytech:
I am using Digital Performer 3.1 for the first time (I have been a long time Performer users since OS X v5).

However -- I can't figure out how to use a VST!

I read the MOTU post. Using Audioeaze I can See the VST (In this case Ivory). I add an Audio Track -- but how do I add the actual VST to it "Using the First Insert"? Where do I find this? Is it in the mixing board window? Which drop down?

Steps or videos - anything would be of help. I even have the DP 3.1 manual, but it's useless, giving aux tracks only a brief mention.

HELP!!!!!

Thanks all, you're the best

as many know Motu uses its own format of virtual instruments called MAS?

Digital Performer supports VST virtual instruments through the VST Wrapper plug-in by Audio Ease and also through the Pluggo shell. When using VST instruments in DP 3.11 and earlier, you may find the following information useful:

Thanks!, however I have the vst wrapper -- I can see the plugins.

My question is actually much more fundamental -- how do I connect the ivory vst on an aux track to the Midi track?

My steps (so far):
1. Add Aux trax
2. Open mixing window, assign "Ivory" vst to Aux track (at this point the Ivory vst comes up)
3. Now what do I do...........

see the below quoted instructions :


--- Quote ---1-First, install the VST wrapper or Pluggo and the instrument plug-in in the VST Plug-ins folder.
2-Then within DP create an auxiluary track
3-assign the Instrument plug-in to this track in the first insert.

*** A MIDI instrument will now appear in the output choices for MIDI tracks in DP.

4-Assign a track to this instrument and you're all set to begin playing.

1. I don't see a Midi Instrument for any of the AudioEase plugins -- they show up in Digital Performer, and appear after creating an insert with them in the mixing board, but they do not show up as instrument outputs in tracks
