Trying to run FL Studio 20 VSTi within Ableton
Posted: Tue Sep 27, 2022 5:33 pm
Hi,
I'm trying to run FL Studio 20 in Ableton using the VSTi version. It shows up in my VST folder and I can load it onto a channel strip just fine, but when I press the logo in the VSTi window (which should start up FL) I get the error message: "The FL Studio engine couldn't be linked, probably because another instance of it is already running, or because it hasn't been installed properly." However, I don't have standalone FL running independently, and when I do run it, it works totally fine.
For more context, I'm really only trying to use Gross Beat for its pitch shifting envelope feature. If there are any other plugins/M4L devices that can do this in a similar way, please let me know!
Specs:
macOS Monterey 12.6
Apple M1
8 GB RAM
MacBook Pro 13 inch 2020
I appreciate any input on this!
