  1. Looking at the prices on the website, I can't believe I got DearVR Pro and DearVR Music for $24.99 and $14.99 respectively earlier this year at PA.

  2. Aquiver is still available at audioplugin.deals. Base price is $4.95 if you have points. Hypernode also, base price is $11.99. You can also buy Aquiver for $131 at Rigid audio :)...

    Funny enough, I am actually a collector as well. I figure there are more expensive things I could collect with less value. I don't feel I have wasted my money yet with Rigid Audio.

    True and also not true.  Depnds on some factors, I don't know all the technical details but I can tell you with certaintly some applicaitons will not recognize some VST3 stored on say a F:drive like you can easily do with VST2.

    I haven't had issues putting plugins in the default path for VST3, I have had issues putting them somewhere else.

    Not sure if that is the case with this one plugin and bandlab in particular though.

    Like I said above, the application has to support alternative scan paths for VST3s. If you don't add the new location in you list of VST3 locations, it ain't gonna find it.

    64 bit VST3 goes in a special folder on Windows, it doesn't go in all the other random VST folders like the older spec ones do.

     

    Usually C drive - Program Files - Common Files - VST3

     

    Place it in there and run the scan and chances are it will show up.

    This is not strictly true. It is true that most installation programs default to this location for 64 bit VST3s, but you can put them in other locations if the installation program allows it, or you can move them later if you desire and you know what you are doing. However, your DAW or whatever you are using to scan for VSTs also has to allow for alternative scan locations for 64 bit VST3s as well. Most do. It should be noted that Steinberg does say that 64 bit VST3s should be install in C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 and 32 bit VST3s in  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\VST3 on 64 bit Windows.

    Also note that VST3s have a .vst3 externsion. VST2s have a DLL extension. That is the standard at least for Windows VSTs.
