Hello, i have one question. So i use amplitube 5 (free version) and waveform (free version). But when I try to use my own presets from amplitube as plugin in waveform, I can only use the standard amp settings, and not my own. Why cant I use my presets? Is it because I use the free version?
I just have to say thank you. You really showed me and all the other people how to successfully use Waveform and I get it now. Before I was stuck trying to make my own Music but now I figured everything out and even have the plug ins now. All thanks to you. Really, I say thank you for explaining us how its done.
After many many years of using Cubase VST I have upgraded to Cubase Elements 11 and am finding that it is a whole different world with a very steep learning curve. So far I have been unsuccessful in loading plugins but this video, whilst not aimed at Cubase has been very useful in stripping away some of the mystery. Many thanks.
hi there, first thanks for creating this vid. I'm a beginner on Waveform. And I keep watching your tutorials and other vid related to Waveform and I learn a lot from your vids. thanks thanks thanks...don't get tired on making vids...
So I recently got Waveform 11 Free edition. For some reason I have no default plugins. Example, I try to use "piano" sound for midi and nothing plays and when I check it says Im missing stuff like "TCompression" and ""TEqualizer". Any help on how to fix this?
Thank you so much i spent hrs and hrs messing with reaper and studio one and could not figure it out you made this so easy im new to e drums thru the computer so thanks for the help
I tried everything you taught me, but it kept telling me that the plugin wouldn't load properly. Before you say anything about 32-bit plugins and 64-bit programs. I'm running on a Mac.
hey im 16 and wanna try messing a round with this kinda stuff i really appreciate the videos as i know nothing about virtual music production keep up the good work and i hope that i can learn enough to make something good
Does Waveform 11 compatible with Qin RV ? I have a try version of Waveform 11, and I have Qin RV 64 bit installed in the plugin fold. But when I scan, the plugins are not show up. Yes, the folders are there, just the plugins don't show up. Any body have any idea?
I downloaded some Plugins from Izotope. When the plug-in window pops up it doesn’t take up the entire window and your cursor is offset. How do you fix this? Thanks

I have an issue with teh OB-Dx Vst I'm currently using with free waveform. Basically Waveform isn't remembering any of the patches I'm using after I've closed it down and reopened which means I have to note down each patch Iv'e used for the separate tracks and reload the patches. Huge pain. Is this a waveform issue or my Vst? How can I fix this and make Waveform remember? thank you!

Hey, in tracktion waveform free, when I'm using effect plugins over a vst instrument, I'm unable to hear the sound of the track. How do I fix it? Will converting the midi into .wav and then adding effects help?

Hi, I have a problem with instaling plug ins in to waveform any way you used it doesnt work for me it still shows window: note that following appeared to be plugin files but failed to load correctly
hi i have literally no idea where else i can ask this question, someone please help me i have a reaper plugin (reaperfir_standalone) installed on waveform. this plugin has a subtract feature that i'm trying to use where it builds a profile of background noise and then filters it out of the recording. the problem: the plugin is not using/recognizing my mic so i cannot use the noise profile feature. there are no preview peaks in the plugin interface, even though the mic is working, and the track the plug in is attached to is enabled for recording. even if i were to record an audio and then try to apply the plugin after wards to build peaks that way, it doesnt work. does anyone have any idea what im doing wrong? thanks for taking the time to read.
I really like your videos. They help a lot. I have waveform for a few days and i'm struggling with the plugins. I wanna record my guitar but i cannot listen to the effect that i selected from the vst. The guitar is working well with the program but i only listen to clean sound and i can record it and when i listen to the recording the guitar effect is there. Can you or someone here help me? Thanks
Some programs have a jbridge that will load 32 bit plugins in a 64 bit program. I have found that to be buggy and in a world full of 64 bit plugins that are great I’m not sure why I would want to do that. Waveform does not have that Jbridge. If you put a 32 bit plugin in your plugin folder, the next time you scan for plugins it will say that one could not be loaded. So you won’t be able to open it in Waveform.
I use a VST Tal-electropro7, it doesn't have the option to select presets directly in the vst, and in the vst window that appears there is no menu bar for the option to select presets like FL Studio, what's the solution?
There's no plugins folder on my entire system. I even copied and pasted the file path in the installation instructions to the file explorer and it found nothing. I don't see a "Steinburg" folder or a "VST" folder anywhere on my system, is something wrong??
If you haven’t installed any plugins yet, you won’t have those. You can create a VSTPlugins folder in C:\Program Files and then you’ll have it and can put plugins in there.
Hey! Admin! How can download free working VST plugins for my Waveform OEM DAW? I have download from Tracktion "Collective" plugin but didn't working, because, 64 bit file not present in download, has only 32 bit file. How to download "Subtractive" plugin as wel as Waveform 10 (Pro)?
Hi there! There have been quite a few plugins that when i go to scan it will say that these plugins failed to load correctly. Is there anything I can do about this? Or are there quite a few plugins that dont work with waveform?
32 bit plugins don’t work with waveform. When you see that message it likely means that those are 32 bit plugins. If you installed both the 64 bit and 32 bit version of the plugin you’ll see that message but you’ll still be able to use the 64 bit version.
I downloaded instrument plugins from one of the links you shared and when i open the file there´s nothing in there. :( do you know what could be happening?

Hi! Today I opened Waveform 11 and when I wanted to use a Waves plugin I saw an error message ¨the plug in couldn´t be loaded and and it asks me to locate the waves 9.2 folder, is there a way to fix it?
Did the plugin work in waveform before? Waves 9.2 is a bit older could it be a 32 bit plugin that you’re trying to load into Waveform? I haven’t experienced this error so I don’t know for sure what could help.
@@AudioTechTV yes, it work, i used api 550A, 550B, masserati and others, before that problem i just did two things: try to update waveform and download the community drive (NI). i think try to update waveform was the reason of the problem, i have the free version.
in my waveform 8 cant find vst plugins.VST3 had tcomposer,delay studio etc. but nothing in VST.also collective not in there.i already downloaded DAW essential ,collective content & collective.i extract & run those files but in waveform not showing vst plugin.only show vst3.what can i do now ?
VST3s always install to the same folder. Regular VST2 plugins can install to any folder. So maybe you installed them to a folder that Waveform isn't set to discover. Figure out which folder you installed the plugins to and then set waveform to search that folder for vsts. Or reinstall the plugins to a folder that Waveform already is looking in. If you have the VST3 version of the plugins, there's nothing wrong with using those.
Question, when first installing the new free waveform 2021 version, how big is the initial install on disk? I'm going to try this daw out and your videos are great help. Logic user for 15 years but I'm liking some features I don't have now.
@@AudioTechTV Got the file, it's about that size... slightly worried after scanning all plugins and the size (cache) grew up to 60Gb). Not sure what gets all cahed during that process. My mac froze all up. (got only about 70Gb available on this traveling one... So I canceled the whole scanning prrocess, rebooted and will add some one by one... They are already on the disk using them in Logic for ages.
Is Xpand2 the first plugin on the track? (Furthest to the left before the panning and gain) if it isn’t the first plugin drag it to the left and it should work. If that’s not the issue. I don’t know. Make sure the track isn’t muted or another track isn’t soloed.
Problem is solved bro.. Actually my midi channel was in different channel number... Anyway thank you for the reply... Learning so much from your videos...keep doing the great stuff..❤🤗
Awosome, but please help me out with some other thing I save my plugins, then when I open up the program on the next day, there is a exclamazion mark at every plugin, they don't work! Only if I load them in individually....
That is weird. Is there an error message when you hover over the exclamation mark? Also do the plugins require some other program to authorize? like ilok or something like that?
Hi, have you tried either of the free offerings from Ample Sound? I'm getting display issues with both the regular and bass guitar. They're not drawing the screen overlays correctly, and I haven't seen any good alternatives for guitar strumming. Any ideas?
I have used both ample sound p bass and the acoustic guitar plugin. And both loaded fine. I will have to see if something changed recently. I know in the past I have had issues with other plugins not displaying correctly but when I loaded the VST3 version of the plugin they worked fine. I can’t remember if the ample plugins had vst3 versions but if they do, try that. Sorry I’m not at my computer at the moment.
@@AudioTechTV Hi Green Tech, during setup there are no vst3 options, only vst2, rtas and aax. The standalone host works perfectly, so it's just the plugin. Also, I tried an older version of the acoustic, without success.
Okay, got it sorted now! In the Windows display settings, the scale and layout was set to 125%. I changed it to 100% and it works now. Many thanks for taking the time to reply.
I can’t use a second vst instrument if I add it to the same track on Traktion Waveform free. It just won’t make any sound and it looks like my MIDI device (Novation launch key mk3 37) just doesn’t input on it when I select it to play it sorry if this doesn’t make any sense I’m new to music production. Like say I had a piano vst in there but added a guitar vst instrument my MIDI controller now doesn’t play either and I do what to do to fix it.
You can only have one instrument on a track. create a second track and put the other instrument on there. If it’s just going to use the same midi as the first instrument then record the one and copy the midi to the other track.
@@AudioTechTV oh thank you so much I love your videos btw what would you recommend as the best free beat sequencer since I can’t really play drums? And is the one instrument per track thing across all DAWs or just waveform?
You can program drums in Waveform by either using a midi clip or step clip on a track with a drum plugin on it. If you want something with a step sequencer built into it, Ritmix is free and it’s an excellent drum plugin with a step sequencer built in. You can also search for drum midis there are lots out there free and paid.
@@AudioTechTV thank you just one more question sorry you can have a lot of plug ins on a track like say I wanted to play a midi track with a piano instrument then wanted to edit it with three other vsts could I do that
hello, i love everything you contribute is tremendous and full of positive energy, i have the free version of tracktion and when i use my waves plugins i have problems to identify the c1 stereo plugins, but the problem here is with all the stereo, some of them are faking it but it doesn't mark anything in the level bars, i increase the input gain in the return track as it can happen with any plugins but it is not the case, i would like to know if it is a tracktion problem, i would appreciate in the soul your help if you save of course.
Hey Simple Green Tech, I am experiencing some very odd behavior in waveform free. The built in drum machine plugin, micro drum sampler, does not keep the pad assignments. Even when you do midi learn and assign all pads in the pad banks. At some point, some assignments just disappear and have to be resassigned. Its very frustrating and impedes the work flow. I have re-assign my mpd26 to the pads more than a dozen times and I can't take it anymore. This cannot possibly be the intended behavior. I am using win 7 64bit...If you are in contact with Tracktion, let me know if this a bug they are fixing. thanks
Have you saved the preset after you assigned all the pads and midi learn functions? You can also save a blank session afterwards and use that as a template. Or is that not working for you too?
@@AudioTechTV Thanks for following up. Saving presets works the same as any other plug in but the pad assignments still shift when loaded into a track. More importantly, the proper function of the plug in should keep the pad assignments once you save them (save/load function). The same should go for kits. There is clearly a bug here. If I save pad assigments in all four banks, by the time I complete the assignments, the top row or bottom row of different banks change assignment. I am giving up on it for now and I will just use sitala and tx16wx. Not ideal for my workflow but I can't take the frustration with this plugin
By the way, I have success with Ritmix drum plug in. I don't know if you have reviewed it but it a better drum plug in compared to the micro drum sampler. The real benefit with micro drum is the step clip automatically displays the assigned pads.
@@AudioTechTV thank you sir , I figured it out . I Installed dll and mse files in a same folder that's why it's not working, now its working but often crashing the daw. Please recommend some good software for flute instrument vst plugins. MT drum kit is awesome as u suggested In PluginBotique the plugins are downloading in some other format not zip.
@@jawaharnehru8531 I don’t use flute instruments so I can’t really recommend one. For your plugin Boutique downloads make sure you are downloading the windows version of the plugin. Sometimes it defaults to Mac.
Hi, I did all the steps you did in this video with MTPowerDrums but after I input the plugin into a track, I open it and after skipping the donation it tells me: ´´the content file is missing´´, although I checked that I have both files in one folder. I have also checked their support site but it still didn´t help. Thanks for your respond :)
@@MichalKralik._ I would suggest Re-installing MT Power Drumkit. The problem is with the plugin. Here is something from their site about the issue www.powerdrumkit.com/help-page.php?topic=content_file
@@AudioTechTV umm next question. I want to hit the kit correctly but how can you fix the you know when you hit the kick drum the plugin recognizes it as a tom2 im so confused how can you fix it (im using waveform btw)
No idea what plugin you’re trying to use. If it’s an instrument plugin make sure you arm the track for recording and your midi keyboard is selected as the input on the track. If it’s an effect plugin, make sure the track is armed for recording and your input is correctly set. If you were able to record before using the plugin, maybe it’s the plugin that you’re using.
You need to install the Waves Central app on your computer and then you can install and activate your waves plugins from within that program. Here is a link to Waves Install and Activate instructions www.waves.com/support/activate
@@AudioTechTV I did thank you, but now it doesn't show the VST plugin folder now that i try to "add a new plugin" it only shows Recent, Waveform and Plugin Rack
@@AudioTechTV thanks for your quick answer. I've clicked ok, but how I get 64 bit deep plug-ins? Are there just 4 plug-ins, which are waveform delivered with the whole program?
Vocal presets in plugins? Everyone’s vocals are going to be different even the same vocalist from song to song will likely need different settings. So I’m not sure what you’re looking for.
@@AudioTechTV like I downloaded a vocal preset my friend sent me but on traction waveform I don't see an option to add Do understand what I'm trying to say.?
Make sure you have live input monitoring enabled on the track you are recording to. Click on the area of the track where you select the input and then down in the properties area you’ll see an option to enable live input monitoring.
I successfully added the MT Power Drumkit, but when I use my virtual MIDI keyboard (from laptop, I don't own a piano keyboard) no sound plays. Do you have a fix for that?
i’m using a plug-in, and it has a ⚠️ symbol on it, i’ve looked it up everywhere and tried to find it myself by messing with it and couldn’t find anything. any idea how to fix that ?

If that’s not the issue. I don’t know. Make sure the track isn’t muted or another track isn’t soloed.
Problem is solved bro.. Actually my midi channel was in different channel number... Anyway thank you for the reply... Learning so much from your videos...keep doing the great stuff..❤🤗
very helpful, TY!
Thank you for watching. Keep creating! 👊👍
Awosome, but please help me out with some other thing
I save my plugins, then when I open up the program on the next day, there is a exclamazion mark at every plugin, they don't work! Only if I load them in individually....
That is weird. Is there an error message when you hover over the exclamation mark? Also do the plugins require some other program to authorize? like ilok or something like that?
Hi, have you tried either of the free offerings from Ample Sound? I'm getting display issues with both the regular and bass guitar. They're not drawing the screen overlays correctly, and I haven't seen any good alternatives for guitar strumming. Any ideas?
I have used both ample sound p bass and the acoustic guitar plugin. And both loaded fine. I will have to see if something changed recently. I know in the past I have had issues with other plugins not displaying correctly but when I loaded the VST3 version of the plugin they worked fine. I can’t remember if the ample plugins had vst3 versions but if they do, try that. Sorry I’m not at my computer at the moment.
@@AudioTechTV Hi Green Tech, during setup there are no vst3 options, only vst2, rtas and aax. The standalone host works perfectly, so it's just the plugin. Also, I tried an older version of the acoustic, without success.
Okay, got it sorted now! In the Windows display settings, the scale and layout was set to 125%. I changed it to 100% and it works now. Many thanks for taking the time to reply.
I can’t use a second vst instrument if I add it to the same track on Traktion Waveform free. It just won’t make any sound and it looks like my MIDI device (Novation launch key mk3 37) just doesn’t input on it when I select it to play it sorry if this doesn’t make any sense I’m new to music production. Like say I had a piano vst in there but added a guitar vst instrument my MIDI controller now doesn’t play either and I do what to do to fix it.
You can only have one instrument on a track. create a second track and put the other instrument on there. If it’s just going to use the same midi as the first instrument then record the one and copy the midi to the other track.
@@AudioTechTV oh thank you so much I love your videos btw what would you recommend as the best free beat sequencer since I can’t really play drums? And is the one instrument per track thing across all DAWs or just waveform?
You can program drums in Waveform by either using a midi clip or step clip on a track with a drum plugin on it. If you want something with a step sequencer built into it, Ritmix is free and it’s an excellent drum plugin with a step sequencer built in.
You can also search for drum midis there are lots out there free and paid.
And I’m pretty sure the 1 instrument per track thing is for all DAWs.
@@AudioTechTV thank you just one more question sorry you can have a lot of plug ins on a track like say I wanted to play a midi track with a piano instrument then wanted to edit it with three other vsts could I do that
hello, i love everything you contribute is tremendous and full of positive energy, i have the free version of tracktion and when i use my waves plugins i have problems to identify the c1 stereo plugins, but the problem here is with all the stereo, some of them are faking it but it doesn't mark anything in the level bars, i increase the input gain in the return track as it can happen with any plugins but it is not the case, i would like to know if it is a tracktion problem, i would appreciate in the soul your help if you save of course.
I added a piano plugin, added the dll file, but it says "could not find instruments" when I drag it in
same
Hey Simple Green Tech, I am experiencing some very odd behavior in waveform free. The built in drum machine plugin, micro drum sampler, does not keep the pad assignments. Even when you do midi learn and assign all pads in the pad banks. At some point, some assignments just disappear and have to be resassigned. Its very frustrating and impedes the work flow. I have re-assign my mpd26 to the pads more than a dozen times and I can't take it anymore. This cannot possibly be the intended behavior. I am using win 7 64bit...If you are in contact with Tracktion, let me know if this a bug they are fixing. thanks
Have you saved the preset after you assigned all the pads and midi learn functions? You can also save a blank session afterwards and use that as a template. Or is that not working for you too?
@@AudioTechTV Thanks for following up. Saving presets works the same as any other plug in but the pad assignments still shift when loaded into a track. More importantly, the proper function of the plug in should keep the pad assignments once you save them (save/load function). The same should go for kits. There is clearly a bug here. If I save pad assigments in all four banks, by the time I complete the assignments, the top row or bottom row of different banks change assignment. I am giving up on it for now and I will just use sitala and tx16wx. Not ideal for my workflow but I can't take the frustration with this plugin
By the way, I have success with Ritmix drum plug in. I don't know if you have reviewed it but it a better drum plug in compared to the micro drum sampler. The real benefit with micro drum is the step clip automatically displays the assigned pads.
I downloaded VSCO2 flute
After unzipping there are only dll and mse files and I copied that
In daw it should instruments not available
Please help
Did you put them into a folder that waveform searches for vst plugins?
@@AudioTechTV thank you sir , I figured it out . I Installed dll and mse files in a same folder that's why it's not working, now its working but often crashing the daw. Please recommend some good software for flute instrument vst plugins.
MT drum kit is awesome as u suggested
In PluginBotique the plugins are downloading in some other format not zip.
@@jawaharnehru8531 I don’t use flute instruments so I can’t really recommend one. For your plugin Boutique downloads make sure you are downloading the windows version of the plugin. Sometimes it defaults to Mac.
@@AudioTechTV ohh , thank you I didn't think of that
I added my VST plugin but there is no sound!
Hi, I did all the steps you did in this video with MTPowerDrums but after I input the plugin into a track, I open it and after skipping the donation it tells me: ´´the content file is missing´´, although I checked that I have both files in one folder. I have also checked their support site but it still didn´t help. Thanks for your respond :)
I’ve never experienced that issue. Maybe try reinstalling.
@@AudioTechTV Reinstalling MTPowerDrums or Waveform?
@@MichalKralik._ I would suggest Re-installing MT Power Drumkit. The problem is with the plugin. Here is something from their site about the issue www.powerdrumkit.com/help-page.php?topic=content_file
@@AudioTechTV ok, thanks!
Big thanks!!
Hmm someone knows how can I find VSTi plugin like valhalla in Waveform?
Sir which vst for import wav to piano roll
Hey i have a problem why cant i find VSTplugins in the program files? heelpp
If you haven’t installed any plugins yet, you may not have the VSTPlugins folder. You can just create it manually if you have to.
@@AudioTechTV umm next question. I want to hit the kit correctly but how can you fix the you know when you hit the kick drum the plugin recognizes it as a tom2 im so confused how can you fix it (im using waveform btw)
Is the Voltage Nucleus free?
It was free for a bit. I’m not sure if it’s still free.
This can be done with Waveform 12???
Yes it’s the exact same.
I don’t have a folder for VSTPlugins.
If you haven’t installed any plugins yet, you won’t have the folder. You can create it if you want and then put your dll files (plugins) in there.
Thanks! But how do I use it with an electronic drum kit? (Alesis Nitro)
Thank you!! Godbless
Any "how to" on linux vst's?
i cant find the vst plugins folder and im using waveform free.
If you haven’t installed any plugins yet then you might not have a vstplugins folder. You can create it then add your plugins to that folder.
@@AudioTechTV thanks! it worked 😄
can we use 3rd party plugins on the free version ?
Yes you can. There are no restrictions in Waveform Free.
@@AudioTechTV thank you so much for replying .
@@AudioTechTV one more thing . i just downloaded it and it’s not letting me record. it says “record error. couldn’t record !” i’m very comfused
I got the plugin installed but it won’t record when I use it.
No idea what plugin you’re trying to use. If it’s an instrument plugin make sure you arm the track for recording and your midi keyboard is selected as the input on the track. If it’s an effect plugin, make sure the track is armed for recording and your input is correctly set. If you were able to record before using the plugin, maybe it’s the plugin that you’re using.
How do I install Wave Tune Real-Time plugin?
You need to install the Waves Central app on your computer and then you can install and activate your waves plugins from within that program. Here is a link to Waves Install and Activate instructions www.waves.com/support/activate
@@AudioTechTV ohh ok
Why isn't the vst plugins here
How do I copy a plugin to another track?
Hold down ctrl on your computer keyboard and then click and drag it onto whatever track you want to copy it to.
@@AudioTechTV Thanks, mate. You always save me 🙏🙏
@@beluumu thank you for continuing to watch. Keep creating! 👊👍
I have a LABS.dll but not pdk, how do i do ?
Put the dll file in your VST plugin folder. The plugin is the dll file.
@@AudioTechTV I did thank you, but now it doesn't show the VST plugin folder now that i try to "add a new plugin" it only shows Recent, Waveform and Plugin Rack
@youraveragefamousjobless328 did you add that folder as one of the folders waveform should scan for plugins?
@@AudioTechTV I think so, it is in the file location for VST Plugins
@@AudioTechTV Wait i think i maybe know why ? My plugin file encountered fatal error during validation, maybe i should just use another one
How to install voloco on windows
mac? pls im so stuck :/
And what i have to do now at 4:59?
If you're talking about the little window that pops up because of incompatible plugins. You just click ok.
@@AudioTechTV thanks for your quick answer. I've clicked ok, but how I get 64 bit deep plug-ins?
Are there just 4 plug-ins, which are waveform delivered with the whole program?
hi ! actually i'm new to this whole thing can you pls tell me how can i play the vst plugin with my virtual midi player
How about vocal presets please
Vocal presets in plugins? Everyone’s vocals are going to be different even the same vocalist from song to song will likely need different settings. So I’m not sure what you’re looking for.
@@AudioTechTV like I downloaded a vocal preset my friend sent me but on traction waveform I don't see an option to add Do understand what I'm trying to say.?
Hey bro could you tell how to get lead sounds in this to produce EDM production.
Didnt work for me
I cant hear my guitar but the software can
Make sure you have live input monitoring enabled on the track you are recording to. Click on the area of the track where you select the input and then down in the properties area you’ll see an option to enable live input monitoring.
@@AudioTechTV thank you for the help
Thankyou, a pleasant and professional how to, my hat is tipped Zane!!!!
I successfully added the MT Power Drumkit, but when I use my virtual MIDI keyboard (from laptop, I don't own a piano keyboard) no sound plays. Do you have a fix for that?
Make sure you have the correct octave set for the virtual midi keyboard.
i’m using a plug-in, and it has a ⚠️ symbol on it, i’ve looked it up everywhere and tried to find it myself by messing with it and couldn’t find anything. any idea how to fix that ?
If you hover the cursor over the symbol it should tell you what the problem is.
@@AudioTechTV i think my PC needed a restart or something, once i did that everything was okay. thanks for getting back to me !
Thankyou, a pleasant and professional how to, my hat is tipped Zane!!!!
