Kudos for that. I h...Great work, Ultimate Outsider! Kudos for that. I have another problem related to NI Komplete Kontrol case…which I like you to present… Because of installing Reaktor 6 lately Komplete Kontrol (I have Komplete 10 bundle) doesn't show a graphic interface anymore for Reaktor-based Instruments. The root of the problem is that all Reaktor-based instruments open with Reaktor 6 automatically in Komplete Kontrol now, which was not the intention. The idea was to only use Reaktor 6 standalone like I was informed. However Komplete Kontrol still opens the Reaktor-based sounds normally and they are playable but within Kontrol I don’t have vision anymore for these instruments. I don’t get an error message btw. With my current version of Komplete Kontrol I cannot adjust it to open only with Reaktor 5 (which is an option with newer versions of Komplete Kontrol). Updating Komplete Kontrol itself not an option because the latest update is not compatible with the Windows 7 I use. And I’m hesitated to update and creating maybe even more problems. So…I was wondering if with your great Plugin and knowledge it is perhaps possible to somehow adjust Komplete Kontrol under the hood to force it to open all Reaktor based instruments again with Reaktor 5, just like before. It must have something to do with changed pathnames or the Reaktor library being indexed as Reaktor 6 now within the Komplete Kontrol plugin. <br /><br />Naturally I contacted Native Instruments ofcourse, but they simply tell me to update to Windows 10, which is ridiculous and for several reasons no option. <br /><br />Best regards,<br /><br />Maxim S.

I don't have any Windows XP systems here to test on anymore which is why I didn't catch the bug, but I realized I can just install XP in a virtual machine. I am going to fix my program for XP soon, possibly even this weekend.Ultimate Outsiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004247608053632633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-69365704638146458882016-03-19T11:19:20.509-07:002016-03-19T11:19:20.509-07:00Ah, I just found the XP-exe in the program folder....Ah, I just found the XP-exe in the program folder.<br />However, I have the same problem as "Random Lobster" with "The procedure entry point 'CreateSymbolicLinkW'"...<br /><br />cheers,<br />ChrisAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14777561382199066073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-54316169828509925112016-03-19T11:16:13.932-07:002016-03-19T11:16:13.932-07:00Hi there,

If I run the "UltimatePluginToolSetup.exe"-Installer, only the normal version is installed and no link or whatever to a XP-version is created.<br />Where's the trick?<br />TIA!<br /><br />greetz<br />Chris<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14777561382199066073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-47609048197432503632016-02-22T12:24:06.697-08:002016-02-22T12:24:06.697-08:00No apologies needed !

And I'm not replacing perfectly good hardware (and associated software) when it still works perfectly !<br /><br />Not to mention the fact that Windows 10 is spyware.<br /><br />But if you'd like me to test any XP builds you care to make I'd be happy to do so. You can get me via ramjet AT templeofdin DOT co DOT uk.<br /><br />Cheers !Random Lobsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03695682922411730554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-19204324665896545492016-02-21T13:08:14.131-08:002016-02-21T13:08:14.131-08:00@Random Lobster - I assume you are running Windows...@Random Lobster - I assume you are running Windows XP if you're using the XP version, yes? I really need to set up a computer here with Windows XP for testing. I just took a look at the Microsoft SDK though, and it looks like that feature might not work on Windows XP. I think the Symbolic Link functionality was new to Windows Vista. I might have to actually remove that particular wizard from the XP version, unfortunately.<br /><br />The first couple of versions of my program did work on Windows XP (and I tested them when I still had an XP system around), but it appears that the most recent couple of updates I made use some APIs that aren't available on XP, resulting in the errors you saw. I apologize for that.Ultimate Outsiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004247608053632633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-50012711664025919522016-02-21T12:59:00.299-08:002016-02-21T12:59:00.299-08:00Hello,

UltimatePluginTool does not currently examine VST properties like ID number, but I agree that would be a useful feature to have. I will consider it for a future update... the program is actually kind of a platform/framework for lots of little things I need/want to be able to do with different plugins, so if I incorporate some logic like that it may end up being in a new "wizard" in the program, or as an enhancement to one of the existing features.Ultimate Outsiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004247608053632633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399960513082382706.post-53290785965322228762015-12-07T12:40:01.627-08:002015-12-07T12:40:01.627-08:00Hi.

There used to be a little utility called vstspy which was similar but it wasn't updated and doesn't work on 64 bit vst. It showed many fields from the plugin including the four character ID for the plugin. Plogue Bidule will not run vst with duplicate ids even if they are different plugins. Vst spy used to allow me to sort that problem out by sorting on plugin ID. Is this possible with your program?
