Jude Lugari 0 Posted January 6, 2021 Howdy, I recently downloaded a VST plugin from ghosthack.de. It turns out that all of the loops are .wav files, and there are no .dll files. I'm assuming that this is why the VST scanner in Cakewalk isn't picking up the plugin? So, can I still use it with Cakewalk? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scook 4,395 Posted January 6, 2021 A VST plug-in must include at least one dll binary file or there is nothing for the VST scanner to scan or the DAW to load as a plug-in. A collection of wav files is just that...a collection of audio clips. Audio clips may be added directly to audio tracks, loaded into the Matrix view or loading into a sample playing plug-in such as the ones mentioned in this thread Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nigel Mackay 258 Posted January 7, 2021 Ghosthack is sample packs only. Not a VST. You put them somewhere on your hard-drive. Preferably where you will store any other samoples you get. Then you follow the last line in @scook's post. Enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
