Rob, you are a star. That gets me the samples. It's totally different from what it says in the manual! (but then, I may have it wrong). Many many thanks. I've also got the PPG2.3 sounds to load that way as well.

Hi glad it helped i seen your post on the Waldorf list, also i only use the Transient loader for samples if that's any use to you.
Hope your finding good use for the PPG, it's deep.

Happy New Year

Strange bug. Never recognized this on Windows 7 so far.

I remember a comparable problem with someone who tried to use the new v1.2.9 update forthe Waldorf Edition. The solution was to update the Visual C++ runtime:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/d ... 4b9f2bc1bf

Maybe this helps if not i'll send this to the PPg Wave 3.v beta forum.

BTW there is a new version 8.2.1 of Ableton Live available since quite a long time, this could help too maybe.

Strange again...

Did you install the update of the Visual C++ Runtime? This is needed because the plugin is written in C++. In the other problem with the Waldorf edition this was the solution. BTW as far as i remember nobody of the betatesters used it in FLstudio. I hope it's not a bug specific to that host...

I posted a link to this in the PPG Wave 3.V Beta forum. I guess someone there could help.

What a truly awful first experience with PPG Wave v3

I'm running Live 8 on a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.5. I keep my system in perfect shape and haven't had a single technical problem - well that was until I tried to demo PPG Wave v3.

The installer failed on every instal attempt.

Image

Never had a single problem with any install ever but there's a first eh. Gave up after about 8 attempts and resorted to doing a force-install using a mac app called Pacifist. This worked fine.

Then installed the demo license on my eLicenser dongle. Worked fine.

Finally launched Live and inserted an instance of PPG Wave v3. Played a note and it worked fine. Went to the browse window to choose a preset and as soon as I clicked on any preset everything froze. Completely locked down with a spinning beachball of death. Had to force quit live. Tried again and again and again and gave up.

Image

Just deleted every last trace of the install and back to a perfect working Live 8 with every plug-in working great as usual.

What a nightmare. I was soo looking forward to demo this!

:cry:

What I've picked up from the threads, and observed first-hand as well:
- The AU in the demo is buggy; if you try to use it in Live (or Logic or anything else), you'll get hangs similar to what you describe. The VST supposedly works much better; indeed I haven't had hangs with it. Since Live supports both AU and VST, of course, you have to make sure you're using the VST and not the AU; this bit me several times.
- A known bug exists with the install, where you'll get some generic "installation" error; I forget what exactly it looks like, it might be what you saw here. The fix is to install the latest Elicenser software and re-install PPG. That seemed to work for me. http://www.elicenser.net/en/latest_downloads.html
- The buggy AU, as I understand it, has been fixed in the release version. I can't say I've tested that, though.

Thanks for the clarification Willx

If Waldorf are aware of the issues they shouldn't be allowing potential customers to download buggy demos. Absolutely shocking stuff. I don't use VSTs in Live, only Audio Units. I'm certainly going to give this a miss for the foreseeable future as this kind of dodgy coding leaves a bad taste in my mouth. :(
