Instruments handled as effects in Cubase SX

Hello!

I've just gone XTC-mode but I have this problem. My EDS16i and Poison FM synths cannot be loaded as VSTi's in Cubase SX2 but are handled as VST-plugins. Everything else seems to be working just great. I've downloaded and installed the latest oxe-files from creamware so that shouldn't be the problem.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks ... take care.

maybe the .dll and/or .dev files were not installed in the right folder.

check the .dev's in SFP/Devices and if they are in .../Plugins try moving them to .../Synths folder

I'm having the same problem - And I have checked, the synths have been istalled in the right directory.....
The synths in question here are:
EDS16i V2
SB404 V2
Vectron

Does anyone know how to change this?

I noticed that BlueSynth is missing to.

Everything is in the right place (in the Synths folder etc). So that can't be the problem.

I am having the same problem. Poison shows up as an effect. The others are OK.

Hi
Any one solved this yet?
What folders are your .dlls and .devs in?
I can't get SX to show any synths from package 1 or 2. They show in the plugin information, but don't load.

Hi
I have solved my problems with missing synths. I think it is important to make sure that all files are in the folders that were set during installation. Sounds a bit obvious but I have SX1 abd SX2 on my machine and the SPF was originally installed when I was using SX1. I re-installed SPF giving my SX2 VSTPlugin directory to SPF as default for plugins and it all now works.
The dll's associated with the dev's maybe given the information where the dev files are located during installation, so they can access them....
Any way I think you have to make sure all dlls are in the correct VSTPlugIn folder in SX and your dev files are in the SFP/devices/synths folder. I had to move mine from the package 1 and 2 folders into SFP/devices/synths.

any news on this? Could anyone solve that issue? I'm stuck in that bug too. I tried everything but nothing brings the XTC synths to the VST instruments. They're all seen as effects. That wouldn't be that bad because they work well there <b>but</b> they're not reloaded after saving a Cubase project.

Hi
Have you tried re-installing SFP and making sure you select the correct directory in SX?

Not sure if this is what you need but...
In SX2, Devices/Plugin Information panel
Click "Update".
This did the trick for me.
