Virtually new install - TTS-1 missing already!

True, some people use it all the time without issues. Others can fiddle-fart around with various workarounds and "get it to work." Somewhat. Still others have nothing but issues.

Therefore, I can't really get myself to recommend expending much effort on it when there's quite literally thousands of plugins that work flawlessly. My time is too valuable to waste on abandonware.

The OP has not mentioned issues with any other plugins.

OK ,I just did a complete uninstall following the instructions here: https://help.cakewalk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034066393-Clean-Install-Cakewalk-by-BandLab

Guess what....? Still no TTS-1 instruments in the Plug Ins Module. Yes, once again it is right there in Plug Ins Manager, buy I can't use it.

My other Instruments re-installed fine. It is just TTS-1 that is being a pain in the *****, so I'm going to have to agree with bdickens here. I can't waste any more time on it other than to ask for a recommendation for a replacement.

Maybe I'm too late, but there's this plugin called Edirol Hyper Canvas that looks similar to TTS-1. I installed it from here:

archive.org/details/edirol-hyper-canvas-vst-installer-version-1.6.0

The MT-32 isn't a sound canvas - it's an LA synth module (basically a cut down D50 without a keyboard).  It's not even GM - it predates GM.   GM borrowed the drum mapping from the MT-32, but that's about it.

As a synth, the MT-32 is actually pretty powerful but it's totally lame at emulating any real instruments (with the possible exception of some of the woodwind / percussion instruments).

Interestingly, the early MT-32's would actually receive D50 sysex, although anything using samples would sound wrong as the sample sets were different.

The samples on the MT-32 are a fraction of a second long, with the sustain parts of the sound being synth based.

The sound canvas (which the TTS1 is based on) is totally sample based, which is why it sounds so much better emulating real instruments.
