Greg Lindsey Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 When I start Cakewalk it starts the VST scan and then as soon as it does a couple of things happen: 1. It doesn't pick up the SI Instruments at all 2. It quickly appears to hang up while saying "Scanning bzrclient.dll..." What do I do? I have this thing run for 4 hours and nothing changed. I was using Cakewalk and never had that problem on that computer and it's an old laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Is bzrclient.dll in a VST plug-in folder? Searching Google indicates this may be game related. Review the scan path settings in preferences. It may be they are causing the scanner to scan folders containing non-VST related dlls. The image in the link shows the default scan path. Maybe start with the default and add back paths that only contain VST plug-ins. Post the scan path here if necessary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Lindsey Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Here is a screenshot of the scan path Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 The second line in the scan path is a problem. The scan path should contain paths with VST2 and VST3 plug-ins only. Scanning the entire D drive is likely to result in the scanner trying to load dlls that have nothing to do with VST plug-ins like bzrclient.dll. Replace the second line in the scan path with the location(s) where audio plug-ins are installed. Avoid duplicate paths, for example, do not add d:\vstplugins\somepath, if d:\vstplugins is already in the scan path. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scook Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 BTW, normally "Rescan Failed Plugins" and "Rescan All Plugins" should not be enabled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Lindsey Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Thank you so much. Question. Initially I had the vsts go to D but I reinstalled everything on C. Can I just remove the D drive command? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
