Installing VST plug-ins
Install VST plug-ins according to the manufacturer's instructions. VST
instruments and VST effects are not entered into the Windows registry, but
must be saved in a certain directory.
Samplitude 11.5 Producer searches for installed VST instruments in the "VST
Plug-ins" program subfolder. VST instruments may be installed either in this
folder or another path may be specified. If a VST plug-ins folder is already
installed on the system, then please use the existing folder. The existing path
must be specified in the system settings (keyboard shortcut: "Y" key) via
"Effects > VST/DirectX/ReWire" (multiple paths may be specified). Simply
enter one path after the other; each path will be scanned. Samplitude 11.5
Producer will automatically find new plug-ins that have been installed if they
are present in the specified folders. If you add VST plug-in subfolders into the
main VST folder (e.g. "Equalizers", "Filters", "Modulation", etc.), then these will
be displayed as submenus when VST plug-ins are loaded.
The first time the program is launched, a search for existing instruments and
plug-ins is executed (when the track settings are opened). Here, not only are
all the plug-ins imported, but they are also checked for their usability within the
program. This search is only required once; the next time it is opened, the
track settings will be opened immediately.
Tip: For problems with your current configuration, you can reset all paths and
installed instruments or plug-ins. To do this, delete the "VSTPlug-Ins.ini" file in
the Samplitude 11.5 Producer folder. All paths will have to be newly entered.
Plug-ins which were removed from the program prior to this will still be shown
again.
Effect calculations
When working withSamplitude 11.5 Producer, audio material manipulation can
be performed on five levels. The signal flows through these five levels in
sequence:
