![]() It operates by moving the sound files and putting in place an alias (mac) or shortcut (pc) in the original location. But the librarian software is also unique to each machine. The steinberg software librarian lets you move the original sound files to a new location after install. Groove agent has its own VST sound library on each machine. The problem is that when installing VSTSound files on the above Instrument sound packs via the Steinberg installers all the files are targeted to each machines own hard disc and the default locations used for the steinberg content files. However whilst it lets me run cubase on which ever machine is turned on first, the way that Steinberg has coded the Steinberg librarian means only the machine where the expansion was first installed actually sees the path to any moved VSTSouund library files. The first machine turned on gets the dock access. I use two individual macs each attached to a single dock which host the dongles and the hard disk where i keep my shared VSTSound library. Im also using GA5 but I assume as far as paths and content locations is concerned it operates the same as GA4. Ive also just bought a couple of the vstsound expansions Nashville and Simon Phillips Jazz Drums. (I’m 64 this year but I think the old grey matter is still working!!) I would be so grateful if some kind soul could at least point me in the right direction. I’m reluctant to move anything in case I muck up the files for Cubase, hence using shortcuts. However I also have content on at least 2 other drives. If I go to… C/ Users/ My computer/Appdata/ Roaming/ Steinberg/ Content … I have folders ‘VST Sound’ and 'Groove Agent/VST Sound. Is there a tutorial I have missed somewhere? What I cannot work out is where Groove Agent looks for the ‘content’! I have tried using shortcuts to direct GA to the right files but I’m doing something wrong. My workaround is to move to the ‘Media Browser’ - From there I can usually access the files I’m after. The problem is within’ the ‘Load’ window - in the ‘Browser’ section I often get a red ‘unavailable’ icon. The whole thing could do with a sort out. I think it is because some of the content is on different drives. Over the years I have purchased some extra sounds for GA 4 but I still find it overcomplicated to access all the drum sounds. Apologies for the long post, but I’ve been putting a bit of time in over the weekend…Ī rare visit here for help because I can usually work out any problems by trial & error. Like I say, there needs to be a way to fix this post install, since it doesn’t seem robust enough to work out of the box. Would it improve things if I manually set a location for the appdata for everything? Is there any log file? When failing to load a pattern it would help if I could find what and where I think it’s getting confused about where kits and patterns are, is there any way I can make sure all files are in correct place? ![]()
