.dll VST instruments?

Post by Landdogger » Sun Jan 21, 2007 6:04 am

I've been downloading various free synths from places online, and very few are working with LIVE. I put them all in specific folder and specify where this custom folder is, but no good. Do .dll instruments work with LIVE?

Thanks!

Just realized...does platform make a difference for the instruments, or are PC/Mac formats interchangable?

.dll (or Dynamic Link Library) is a Windows only file format. You will need to find VSTs that have a .vst extension which will work on Mac.
