Thanks... Yeah, I thought something like that. I already tried copying the expansions folder to he different locations I found fir Rapture (there’s another within the Rapture Sessions folder)... tried reloading Rapture. I seemed to remember something like the refresh but I haven’t found it. Too tired tonight from last night’s gig, or was that this morning? My DAW was too tired too. So it already went to sleep. I’ll look again in the morning.

Me? I use Photoshop 7

OK... I seem to remember some "trick" to getting the expansions into Rapture but I haven't stumbled on it... I've run the expansions installer, but they don't appear which is when I seem to remember some detail that needs to be done to complete the task. Am I wrong? Does anyone remember anything about this? I seem to recall using the expansion sounds more than the basics that were included...

Sadly, not here. Oh well. As I’ve never used them on my old DAW, I probably won’t miss them here. It would have been nice to explore more options.

Thanks abacab, but sadly, no. I only have the NYC impulses in my user folder...

Interesting... but I couldn't find any links to download these. so I guess I will forever be forgetful of what they sounded like...

AHA! Thanks abacab! That was the missing bit. It's a PC plugin! I found it and whether it already had these or found them because they were correctly installed, but the NYC impulses are all there already! Nice... Now we have the best of both worlds (in the free arena anyway)...

Thanks. I was afraid it was something like that. Yeah player is a deeper version, but we can’t load the NYC impulses that were also bundled with Sonar at some point. You have to have the full/paid version to load "user presets". That’s what I was trying to accomplish. Not a great tragedy as I’ve never used them so I don’t remember what they contained...

Good/Special deal to me! I now have more lovely IRs to chose from! Too bad I can’t use the NYC IRs we got for the older version. Does anyone remember when we got rematrix solo? I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

This one dropped into the Player just fine... Too bad I can't find a way to add the Rematrix Solo IR's to it. Only allows "user" impulses in paid version. Any way to add the Cakewalk-Supplied NYC IR's to the free rematrix player? Or find a copy of the rematrix solo player? I can't seem to find that anywhere either in CCC or in Cakewalk's My Products...

Thanks for this John... I just downloaded it finally thanks to your link and suggestion... I actually tried to find such on Overloud's site but I only kept coming up with the $49 sale version... --- Edit: ...Installed and happy!

I just sent them (JRR) an email though they're not there until Monday...

None of the above. No download link in email, no download link in my account check order, no download link anywhere! I just keep going in circles!

I must be blind. I still can't find it. Not in the email receipt for the purchase, not in my available downloads folder.... I'll look again... No It's not me (I don't believe)... There is no download link in any of the places mentioned. The receipt claims it will send another email when it ships? I see re0rder and such but there are no download links anywhere to be found...

What's the story with JRR's system? I ended up ordering it twice as it doesn't seem to complete and supply the download link. It shows my "purchases", but no downloads available? Is there some prolonged delay in their' system?

Ok. That’s possibly the reason. I too suffer from resource hogs. I love a few of the Cherry Audio synths and at first, I couldn’t comfortably use them, but they improved enough in a reasonable timespan so that They finally become useable. Ik's Amplitube 5. A great plugin but such a hog it's barely useable even here. I was using 3 as 4 held jo advantages but no my new DAW I can’t get 3 authorized for some reason so I’m using 4... My point is that this is a development issue, not business issue. While every bit as important or more, not quite the focus of this thread, yes? From the days long before digital descended on us, equipment upgrades, technology changes etc have long driven us to buy better/faster forever!

Interesting... I've not had any such problems. Regardless of my distaste for their business decisions and authorizations etc. their plugins seem to work well here. Waveshell? Yeah, I see the versions scan and always wonder why they take longer than almost my whole scan time for each one, but then they become gone... So I'm thinking there might be some other situation that's adding to the mix?

I feel like some info here is crossed? In this thread I was looking to learn about removing some demo versions of plugins I don’t use. This has nothing to do with waves at all. My issue with waves is a different forum topic. But regardless, Thanks for pitching in. I found my solution with the use of the exclude option. The files themselves are small enough not to matter to me as long as I don’t see them in my list...

yup... Some do but sadly not all

I really have not been a waves basher though I'm feeling that way right now. I got @$$%$@@$ in their decision making so I'm not a happy camper and looking at the decisions they've been constantly leaning toward and now followed to a state of ripping off some customers such as myself. I had working software that I paid for. They automatically changed something via their auto update that has now placed me in a position where I can only recover what I already had if I'm willing to shell out more cash to buy a dongle to dedicate to their plugin's need on a port that I don't have to spare is an insult and possibly even something that could pursue legal action which I am not about to do. But I will be very wary of entering into more business with a company that believed they could sell something then decide to re-neg on the deal after the fact. I feel insulted on top of miffed for sure. I don't want to bash them I'd like to praise them for their good work but their' business model as it eveolves seems to be headed worse (for me) not better.... I do like their plugins. It's not a question of that at all. I don't own that many but those I do get used.... A lot of things are changing in the respect of selling things such as software and I get that whether I like the direction of change or not. I will stay with more conventional solutions as much as I can for as Long as I can... I'm old, that shouldn't be too long!

I mostly stayed away because of their' policies. But the Abbey Road Studio 3 plugin was too much to resist. I still rely on it as I’m currently forced to working in cans (apartment living). The combination of the gorgeous sounding room and stunning Quested monitors has me! I see other companies with similar (?) programs of other rooms, but no one else has this! other than that I use the puigchild 660/670 a lot but see alternatives if needed. Everything else I have of theirs I like but could live without.

Ha! That's funny! It so happens that one of the two Waves plugins I'm having my issues with them about is their Puigchild 660/670 which I like a lot. My main need from them though is by far the Abbey Road Studio 3 plugin... It has raised the bar on mixing in headphones for me and while I know there are some other companies including Slate who are offering plugins to do this... None use the Abbey Road Studio 3 Room and Monitors. The million dollar room with $100k Quested Mains is now MY room! I don't want to give that one up!

Thanks Eric... That's what I had done in the past, but thought this time maybe a better way for me. The exclude list perfectly suits the bill for my needs. I use a number of ik plugins. I like them a lot and have had good experiences with the few times I needed to contact them. But I ababdoned the rack stuff due to that methodology. They do the same for amplitube as well. All the amps, cabs, stomps, mics are installed but not unlocked. A bit of a storage waste/hog and still hoping they one day change this approach. I see it as a week point, not a sale incentive as they hope.

Sorry for burning up others' time with my anger issues. I needed to vent among others who might understand....

Yeah, as I suspected.... I would love to simply run the uninstaller but I don't wantit to remove any that I actually use/want... and there doesn't appear to be any way to specify such during an uninstall unless I'm mistaken... ...but I like the exclude list method. That will suffice for sure... Thanks abacab
