I have just updated Discovery Pro installer. It's a PKG now and I'd like to know if it's working on other systems as well.

Get it from http://www.discodsp.net/DiscoveryProR56Demo.pkg.zip (61 MB download)

Thanks.

Please help needed.

Hi George,

Installer went fine, but DiscoveryPro is having issues trying to find the waveform data and presets etc when loading into Ableton Live.

I'm 10.7.3 btw.

Alan

PS: To clarify the data folders themselves installed fine but there are no presets/waves in the folders.

Also: Am seeing AU/VST in Studio 1 v2 64bit but no sign of the 64bit versions in NI Kore2 and Maschine... they're not scanning (or showing up).

okay, report from the frontlines:

am on 10.7.3 & logic 9.1.7.

ran the installer, but failed audio unit validation (am running logic 64bit).
re-opened logic 32bit. (so it IS a 32bit AU??)

window was STUCK on:

"Scanning Audio Units (finalized 2 of 3)"
and auvaltool was open.

after a while, i was going to abort, but clicked continue...and it loaded.

showed in AU manager.

reopened 64bit and is there, as a 32bit AU (no sounds in the demo??)


PM me if u want further assistance...

Thanks, Discovery Pro works as 32 / 64-bit AU / VST so we have a issue there.

I repaired some file installer permissions and there is a new installer build right now.

Uninstall previous files first:
Drag discoDSP Discovery Pro Documents folder to trash and also the following files:

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/DiscoveryProDemo.componen t
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/DiscoveryProDemo.vst
/Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Plug-Ins/DiscoveryProDemo.dpm

I have tested and works just fine. Using 10.7.3 by the way.

Unless the original link hadn't been updated I'm getting the exactly the same results as earlier.

This is very strange... I did the usual process to place files into user home folder, just placing data folder to /var/tmp/ using the installer then moving the files to home using

cp -r -n /var/tmp/Discovery\ Pro/ /Users/$USER/Documents/discoDSP/Discovery\ Pro/
A new installer is up at http://www.discodsp.net/DiscoveryProR56Demo.pkg.zip I have set root-wheel 755 permissions for the .vst .component and .dpm files so there should be no issues with that now.

Any help is appreciated.

Okay I changed /var/tmp/ for /tmp/ maybe it works that way.

Just re-download and try again.

Installs on Mac 10.7.3, loaded into Live 8.3 and Logic 9.1.7.

Then it's just weird. Seems to work perfectly on some systems and there are a lot of issues on others. Can't really find out why.

Previous DMG + custom installer seems to work perfect. I was aware of PackageMaker being hard to use but not that much.

works. ran the installer, played with it...just added it officially to my setup.
i wrote a review here as well (am getting in to writing reviews...).

Installed in my iMac i7 (which even have Discovery Pro R4 - hope the installation didn't get messed). Got installed OK, and got validated and loaded OK in Reaper (both as AU and VST), Cubase 6.5, Logic (latest version), and Digital Performer.
Running Mac OS X 10.7.3 so, the installer seems OK.

A bit OT but do we need an installer at all?


I'd rather have a component and a vst to drag and a data folder. PLEASE.....

Anyway i can't try this as i have full version installed so don't want to overwrite anything......

Still very strange, for some users works perfect and other got issues.

Please make sure you are using http://www.discodsp.net/DiscoveryProR56Demo.pkg.zip

ttoz, I also prefer drag & drop, but right now Discovery Pro requires four locations (AU, VST, ProTools, Data folders) and using a installer is much more convenient for the average user.
