OSX 10.6.7 and Destroy FX VST plugs - possible issue??

Macrostructure · Post by **Macrostructure** » Sat Jul 09, 2011 4:18 pm

Like a few people I have been using VSTs moe than Audio Units recently, what with the issues they are having right now. Unfortunately OSX10.6.7 doesn't seem to recognise some or all DestroyFX VST plugins. I have tried Scrubby, Geometer, Buffer Override and Transverb in Live and WaveEditor, and they are not coming up. They used to be there.

Can anyone verify and is there a known solution? No reply from DFX support....

Thanks

Oh Drat!

I'll leave my typing errors today, for others amusement and as a reminder to myself to be more careful with an X-acto blade. My index finger has a nice gash - so wrapped in electrical tape it has limited dexterity today.

lol I just had this image of your hands all taped up bashing away on the keyboard.

Oh, and OP, they still work fine for me all the way up to 10.6.8...

you downloaded the ppc versions...go to the general audio units page : http://destroyfx.smartelectronix.com/audiounits.html
download,
enjoy.

all destroy fx plugs on that page are working in 10.6

Yup, Destroy FX never made a VST Intel version of Buffer Override, another reason to use Audio Units over VST. Then again if I remember right Brahm never made an AU version of Cyanide 2, so another reason to use both.

Today I received a very polite, comprehensive and helpful reply from Sophia at DFX. It seems the issues, where present, are with a few other developers AU plugins only and the unavailability of certain DFX plugins in VST format for Intel Macs is in no way an issue for producers. The guidance from DFX on which plugs to install, and how, can be found in their FAQ here:
