    Hi everyone!
    The VI's pacths/Presets/Matrices (not the Custom Matrices) don't appear anymore when I launch the plug! The Plug is installed on my Internal Drive, and the Library and My External Drive 1. Recently, my External Drive 2 have crashed (and I had to replace it). I don't remember if I had choosen a specific folder for the prestes/Patchs/Matrices during the initial installation (and may be I could have choosen my "R.I.P." HD!). I just don't know where they are, and how can i re-install them if i have to!
    Your help would very very helpfull!!!!
    Thanks in advance
    My best

    I fixed it!!
    Sorry! I was confused, and this is only because I changed only one character on the HD's name.
    Sorry for that, but tank you!!

    hi ,

    i have the same kind of problem after reinstalling my VI solo strings.
    I used the VI directory manager to scan the correct path but when i open the intrument , i can't see anything ( patch, matrix,etc...) . I can see the presets but can't select them

    Hi Satanas,

    did you delete all folders from the Directory Manager and then add the newly created folders? That should make it work!

    And please remember, that these changes in the DM are not effective, when the Vienna Instruments are running, you need to shut them down (as the DM tells the VI what to scan when it starts)!

    hi Paul,

    thanks for your quick answer.
    I tried to to that so many times but...nothing [[:(]]
    I can see the solo strings on the left side of the plug but on the right sid of the window...nothing [[:(]] All i can see is "empty preset" " empty matrix" or " no patch"
    I can't select the instruments on the left side of the screen.

    thanks for your help

    regards

    Hi satanas,

    that means that the VI doesn´t see the samples and somehing must be wrong with the assignment in the DM.

    Try the following: Restart your computer and delete and reassign the folders again (don´t even start the VI before!!).

    @Another User said:

    I can't select the instruments on the left side of the screen.


    This is something I don´t understand, selection of instruments is always on the right side of the screen...

    The "instruments" on the left side of the screen are actually licences.

    i tried so many times to delete and reassign the folders again and again but nothing happens.
    One thing that i didn't tell you...when i reinstalled the VI , i started directly with the 1.06 installer and i'm on a Mac G5 quad , 10.4.6

    any idea ?

    thank you very much
    best regards
