Hello,

I have downloaded Tracktion 6 for a test today. I cah easily record my keystrokes via the Midi IN.
However I am unable to select any Plugins in the Output menu of the track.

I can see two plugins in Tracktion 6 as per the screnshot below.
However I can't select it as output of my Midi track. I can only select:
(Default Audio Output)
(Default Midi Output)
Output Channel 1+2
Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth

If I change my Audio Device to ASIO in the settings then it is even worse as I can't select anything else than the Default entries which output nothing.

Here is the list of MIDI Devices as well.

The Tyrell plugin works fine under the other DAW I have tried just before : Ohm - both with WindowsAudio and with ASIO. I did not try any other DAW.

Do you have an idea please why I can't use any plugin with Tracktion 6 ?

Thanks

I think you are looking in the wrong place. On the track you are inputting the midi,on the panel below just by the transport area,you can select the output there.
Personally I would put a vst instrument on the track before the volume and pan.check youtube for some tutorials.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. You put me on the right track and I got my plugin working now. Very good.
For the benefit of others who might struggle about this here is a quick screenshot showing exactly what to do:

No problem, might I suggest you place the vst first after the midi clip/track before the volume and meter plugs
