Here is some person that may have been from waves, from what I see what he or she was trying to do was give help and advice. Maybe you at Waves rethink what you are doing. Waves is for me of no interest, and I think, that many others feel the same. but that thread and especially that post is telling that everyone should be think about Waves twice and if in doubt, leave it out. I wanted to jump on the black friday plugin, saw that I would have to install Waves central, read a little bit about it and thought to myself: well, f*** Waves reverb, there are other that are at least equally good. you will loose customer after customer, because Waves is since some time not the top of the cream anymore, if it anytime was the top at all, what I really doubt. Is there another way thinkable to install plugins without all that hassle? how do other developers do it? is it really wise, to force an installation path on the user? there are so many reasons to have the plugins NOT on C:\īut you professional developers (with that prices for plugins) are not able to develop an installer that lets the user choose? or are you not willing to do so? ok, then its your problem. Well, your explanations are another reason why I dont use Waves and will not use Waves plugins. After, Reaper will show all installed Waves plugins although only the related Waveshell has been scanned. Make sure that the VST plugins folder (and optionally also the VST3 plugins folder) is specified in the Reaper VST preferences. If they are connected in the connector window.

In this folder, create a subfolder named "Waves"ģ. Proceed as follows in order to use Waves VST2 plugins:ġ. In short, you must copy the required WaveShell file to your plugins folder. It is like a single DLL file that contains all Waves plugins. The Waveshell gives you access to all Waves plugins. The Waves installation folder contains a subfolder named "Waveshells". Named "c:\Program Files\Waves" (32 bit OS) or "c:\Program Files(x86)\Waves" (64 bit OS). On Windows, the Waves installer copies all required files (DLL and others) into an installation directory It seems that users have trouble to install Waves plugins. I'm fairly sure (for the masochists) "Delete VST cache and re-scan" would also work. Hope this helps others who find themselves in the same situation. My theory is that now that everything runs through WavesShell, you have to 'touch' WavesShell so REAPER calls it's init routine, which I suspect is the only time WS looks for new plugs. I suspect that just removing the "WaveShell_VST_9.6_圆4.dll=123456789,0, " line would do it. >:-(Īfter some thrashing, I found out (on Windows 圆4) that if you delete all the "WavesShell_VST_9.6." lines from reaper-vstplugins64.ini and restart REAPER the new plugs appear. You think I would have learned my lesson, but I got another Waves plug during their Cyber Monday sale today, used Waves Central to install & authorize it - and it did not show up in REAPER! "Rescan" - nothing. I'll note that you now have no choice as to where the Waves plugs are installed. DRM and obfuscation is truly a wonderful thing for users (NOT). I finally got everything installed and running. I had a heck of time upgrading to Waves 9.6 last week.
