Ableton Forum

Now I know you would be quick to say to make sure the vst is in its right plugin folder. It is. Alrighty did the hold down ALT and press rescan in preferences, and the vst is STILL not there in ableton plugins. I have ableton live 8. What do you think the problem is?? The vst is "Grossbeat" from FL studios. FL studios vst works in ableton just fine, but I just want to use the grossbeat as a standalone vst in ableton, like in this video

Please help, I know this is kinda a noob problem probably, be it would be REALLY appreciated.

So, you have the IL Gross Beat.dll in the same folder as all your other VSTs?

Have you tired right clicking on the Ableton Live shourtcut and choosing Run As Administrator? Sometimes you need to run Live as administrator at least once to get certain plugins to work, then you can go back to running Live normally.
