Re: This VST is not compatible with Live
This is one of the worse response forums I've ever seen. A bunch of witty intellectual supremacists (nerds) attacking a reasonably frustrated Ableton user with indifferent wordplay! IF you don't know the answer, why post a reply. Is this the emoji for the 'Bird'

Re: This VST is not compatible with Live
Thread is 3 years old there buddy. Not sure you are adding much to the conversation except the same kind of reply you appear to be complaining about so a bit of irony there.SoldierOfYHV wrote: ↑Mon Apr 19, 2021 7:35 amThis is one of the worse response forums I've ever seen.

Re: This VST is not compatible with Live
Hi All - Stumbled upon this thread while running into the same issue myself after updating to Waves V14 today. I figured I would chime in with some useful info since it seems like the thread has gone off the rails...
Updating to V14 necessitated me updating to Live 11.1 and after updating the Live version and running the V14 update I ran into this issue while attempting to load any Live session with a Waves plugin. After messing with it for a while and doing some googling, I actually found nothing useful until I went into the Settings section of Waves Central and ran the Repair function. This corrected the V14 version and removed all the old V13 versions I had in my plugin browser (which I assume were running VST2, hence the error...or at least Live thought they were). The other major bonus to running the Repair function is that it replaced all the old V13 instances of the plugins with V14 in all the groups/chains/presets I had saved! Huuuuge time saver for anyone who has gone through and manually updated these before.
Anyway, hopefully this helps someone who has this same issue in the future and finds this thread.
cheers
