Does this mean us Logic users are out of luck? I was REALLY looking forward to this tagging/rating system as I feel its a GREAT idea!!
No there is an AU too - so it also works as a VST to AU wrapper.
Thanks for the info! So people have had success running a VST to AU wrapper in Logic? If so which one do you recommend?
I'm saying Zen can function as a wrapper. It is an AU and loads VST's in Logic.

AHHHHH!!! So I should be seeing it in my instruments list in logic then, right? Unfortunately right now I do not. I've double checked and I do have the zen.component in my components folder. Weird its not showing up in logic though.

Do you see it in Logic's audiounits manager ?

Searched for "Zen" in my Logic audio units manager (both booting in 32 & 64-bit) and nothing comes up. Looked in my audio -> plugins -> components folder and see the Zen.component

I've installed TONS of plugins and never had this problem before. Odd... Zen stand alone seems to be working correctly though. If it helps I'm running Logic 9.1.8 on OS 10.8.3 on my 2012 macbook pro.

hmmm ok let me look into it. I hardly ever use Logic so maybe the AU version went bad, in which case I'll fix it for up-and-coming 1.7.1 update.

You're right, it's not showing. I could have sworn that it was, maybe the last update broke something? The component is installed but not showing as an AU in any of my hosts. I've been using the VST and standalone so hadn't noticed when this happened.

Looks like that has happened.

Good to know I wasn't going nuts, lol! Hopefully 7.1 will be released sooner than later as I really do look forward to trying this system in Logic.

P.s. Is there anyway to adjust the size of Zen? Though I'm only using stand alone right now, I would love to have the choice of resizing it but it doesn't seem to be possible?

Yes 1.7.1 will be out soon, I'm currently testing it. It also fixes some of the nasty loud noises when switching presets.

Making it resizable is another entry for http://bigtick.uservoice.com
