User 905133 Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) 10 hours ago, TicoJPunk said: I have Syntronik 2 installed, along with every one of the synths. I never installed Syntronik CS. Should I? Is there anything extra going on with that? Is Syntronik 2 working? Do you have all 33 Instruments and all the Generation 1 (SYN) and Generation 2 (SYN2) presets installed and working? If so, based on what I have seen CS [a super lite version] will not add anything you don't already have. The CS version of Syntronik 2 has a very small number of presets with a minuscule number of wave sets.

Fleer Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I’m thinking I’ll just download everything from My Products to be sure I have all the sounds within the 180-days timeframe and not bother with Product Manager (yet). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at one or two and from what I saw, they have replacement (maybe supplemental?) sound content files. They are not very big. The largest one I have is for 99 (66,099 KB). Most are smaller than 15,000 KB). The install time for the update files is way quicker than the GB [Great Big!] Sound Content Installation. Just an FYI.

JoeGBradford Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Thanks - yes I'd noticed they were smaller - I am wondering if they will get installed automatically whilst I'm downloading the instruments - which is proving to be exceptionally slow process especially as one decided to pause itself whilst I was away from the PC!

Yes, everything appears to be in place and working as it should be, so I'll continue to not bother with CS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abacab Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) FYI: Just noticed that any multi that tries to load a synth that isn't installed yet will cause an instant crash of the standalone, or the plugin will crash your DAW. I looked inside one of the crashing multi files using Notepad++ (they are XML, so human readable), and yup, there are two out of three synths that I don't have installed. The Harpy and the Memory V.

OTOH, may be creating still more work for me if I’m gonna eventually use Product Manager to install—since Product Manager leaves behind all the zip files. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I confirmed this by installing my two missing instruments. The multi loads fine now! Of course, I wish that Syntronik 2 threw an error regarding missing instruments instead of just crashing. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
