Zebra/Zebralette vst3 issue

[yzcoruhT]

Hello,

I wanted to move to vst3 for all plugins I'm using (Win10, 64bit, FL Studio latest version).
I have no problems with my VST3 (Hive, Podolski, ThornCM, TripleCheese, TyrellN6, ZebraCM) but when I try to install Zebralette and try to put Zebra2.vst3 on channel, FL Studio says, that it's an effect, I have to put it in my effect chain and won't open it. When I put it as an effect, I can choose which plugin I want to open (Zebra, Zebralette,...) but of course it does not produce any sound - because it's instrument - not effect.
So I installed only vst2 version. This one works fine for me, because it is separate .dll file.

Anyone else have the same problem?

Thanks for reading and excuse my English.

AFAIK (I'm almost but not entirely sure at this point) this is an FL Studio problem. Plugins that install with several sub products (like Zebra2 with its Zebrify and Zebralette etc.) are not recognized as synths by FL Studio, it will categorize them as effect plugins.

This used to be a problem with older FL Studio versions (as TUC already explained), but I haven't seen the issue in a while.
I was hopeful that FL Studio could correctly detect such plugins by now.
Maybe try a rescan of the Zebra2 VST3 plugin.

Thanks for answers. Still the same problem, also on my son's PC. I'll try to solve it/find a help on Image-Line forum.

Wonderful, didn't know about this solution yet.

For users who do not have access to the FL Studio forum, the solution to this problem is to activate the "verify plugins" option in the plugin manager.
Without this option FL Studio cannot detect the different plugins that all live inside the single Zebra2 VST3 plugin.

Would you look at that, interesting!
