abacab Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) Just a heads up here, and it may only be me, but this library update clobbered all of my listed sample folders in the Cosmos browser, except for the built-in one. Going to try to restore the "cosmos.sqlite" db that I backed up yesterday from the " \AppData\Local\Waves Audio\Waves Plugin Server" path. Edit: No luck with restore, even after restoring the full "Waves Plugin Server" folder. Way to go Waves! ?

Waves is likely to get a lot of hate mail for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husker Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I updated with seemingly no issue. What exactly are you seeing Abacab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of my local folder references are now missing from Cosmos, except for the one provided by Waves. They were all there before the update. My original sample folders are still there on my "D:" drive. I can add them and re-scan into Cosmos, but that shouldn't be necessary. Very time consuming! ADSR Sample Manager still has all of them listed here, so I'm thinking it is just a Waves issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PavlovsCat Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) While I realize someone will probably claim this thread isn't appropriate for the deals forum, I find threads like these super valuable -- and it's for a purchase I only made because of a thread here in the deals forum. I'm going to hold off on the update until someone posts the issues they're now experiencing are resolved. If you could please keep us updated @abacab and @locrian. I'd rather wait until I get the all clear before installing the update. Thanks for posting your issues. It's valuable information.

I opened "cosmos.sqlite" (located in " ...\AppData\Local\Waves Audio\Waves Plugin Server") and confirmed that the latest Waves' update erased all my sample library additions (just the paths, not the actual samples/folders) leaving only the Waves' samples (as described by abacab). Nice! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jesse g Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 i think I will hold off on the Cosmos update until Waves receive enough hate mail to fix the issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bapu Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Well, good on me. Somehow I missed the purchase of CR8. So, I just purchased and installed it but did not yet set my samples lib location(s). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bapu Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 So does the CR8 install put any libs on my OS drive by default? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall specifically for the CR8 installer, but in Cosmos you can reconnect folders that you have moved from their original scanned location. Until the cosmos.sqlite db decides to take a dump.

Just wondered if having paths beyond only the boot drive might be an issue here. But apparently not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 i'M ON THE FENCE about buying CR8. I would have to buy 3 of them. I thinking you don't really need such a thing using Live for FL Studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hi all, I did the update today without any issues. My samples on drive G: are available. Maybe they fixed it. I am Windows 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be a hit or miss issue, everyone is apparently not affected. Probably why it passed QA checks at Waves. Windows 10.

Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Scanning samples on my machine took 8 days, thank you very much for the heads-up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 This seems half assed. I guess I can open a folder via Windows and drop a sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
