buck_weat Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Hello All, I just installed the 3.8 version of Helix Native on my computer. The VST3 version seems to have installed just fine, but when I open the newly installed VST2 (.dll) version it still says v3.71, and the new amps are not there. I use the Nanohost program to load the plugin as a stand-alone option, but it only uses VST2 files. I have uninstalled Native, and had the new install go to a completely different and new folder. But when I open it from the new location, the version is still 3.71. Thanks in advance for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 During the install process you're given the option of installing VST2. It is NOT installed by default, you need to check the box, and if you don't already have a VstPlugins directory you need to create it: C:\ProgramFiles\VstPlugins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Just for kicks I DL'd NanoHost. I couldn't get it to load Native VST2. Nor would Reaper even see it, though the VST3 works fine. The only real reason to use the VST2 version is in your use case. I would contact support, though I suspect that would not result in a satisfactory resolution. Try the Free version of Cantabile if you just want a standalone HOST, but It's probably time to install a lightweight DAW like Reaper. Reaper has a FREE unlimited trial and only nags at startup. It's only $60 for a lifetime license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
