SSD4 1.07 Beta POSTED

[drainaudio]

Basement, SSD ist the first company I'm aware of that urge their customers to think about installing a 64- or 32bit version of a very simple plugin. Placing both versions of installers with no hints about how to use them (especially how to uninstall the other one if the chosen one won't work) is such an unprofessioal customer service; I recommend to wait for a stable version (maybe 1.5 or 2.0).

For crying out loud @vaikl - can you possibly come on this forum without your post being another utterly boring moan especially when the problems you are having appear to be of your own doing?

To @basement, I have both the 32-bit & 64-bit versions of SSD4 working very well under Logic 9.1.6 & Lion 10.7.3.
I installed the 32-Bit version first, checked it was working then installed the 64-Bit version & checked it was working, as the SoundToys package which I use a lot has not been ported to 64-Bit I'm constantly swapping between 32 & 64-Bit - all is good, sure the SSD4 plug-in could use some optimisation so it's CPU hit is lower (VCC was the same, released & then each subsequent vs. was more efficient) but it's very stable & sounds GREAT - which is EXACTLY what it is designed to do.

Seems those who have corrupted libraries more than likely didn't follow the download instructions properly from what I can see - if you did, then go to your Logic Plug-ins folder simply remove SSD4 & install again.
I do recall that either Safari or Google Chrome had issues with the library download (can't remember which, sorry it was Xmas & I was doing 10 things at once) - once I read the download instructions & downloaded each part one at a time it was all good.

Let us know how you get on?

Cheers, Geoff.

Geoff, I can see that you haven't understand what I was writing about. It was *not* about having a working 32- *OR* a working 64-bit version, it was about having no smart installer which can install *both* versions in a standard process. Maybe it's not clear enough to you, but the need to decide which version you want to work with and then being urged to *re*-install this version, because the SSD devs had forgotten to give them separate names and system registrations or to place a multi-system component, that is everything but professional. Almost any of the free-/shareware guys would do this better.

Please don't tell me what I should do in *your* world, because I've paid for a *working* plugin and not a beta or something for Logic 9 only.

If you feel like I'm "crying" - nobody forces you to read my posts. I was in contact with both support and Steven and it's still obvious that both are talking in different languages.

so, my question is still unanswered... what about 64-bit VST for cubase?

@Geoff, where can I find this information about how to install the 1,07 64 bit properly?

Think I figured it out. Removed the old component file first and then trashed the prefs.

Hi there..
In my download of 1.07 for AU OS X. Package only contains 32bit and no 64bit hence no 64 component and no 64bit SSD4 Sampler in logic 9
Please advise,
thanks Ronny

There is no 64 bit version yet.
It's coming but no one knows when.
Could be weeks, could be months, who knows.
So for me, just like many others, it's a lemon.....just sitting there, doing nothing, waiting for an update.
Unfortunately we all bought a "pre-release" which isn't a preview version of the plugin.It's an unfinished one.

Hi thanks for that.
I did google ssd4 64bit and got to this thread, So what is all this about from the post above?

There is & has been a 64-Bit AU version of SSD4 since the Beta 1.07 release (it's in the OSX installers folder......shock horror!!)...........really love it when I see posts from people moaning "lemon......blah.....blah etc" when it's obviously their own inability to use/understand DAW basics & or laziness, stupidity, penchant for complaining.....take your pick.

Good thing I'm not a plug-in developer......I'd go out of business pretty quickly for telling customers who posted in such a way to £££££#######!!

Seriously - please use your eyes people & stop your bitching.......I can't imagine how frustrating it must be for the Slate team to have to read such rubbish when they are busting their balls to develop what is bar none the best sounding virtual drum instrument available......granted it needs a little refinement here & there but so what!!! - it's perfectly usable in it's current state by anyone with fairly elementary skills.

.......just sitting there, doing nothing, waiting for an update.
Yeah & I bet you expect the update to write & produce a platinum album for you while you sleep too......I mean seriously ROTFLOL..

Hi there Drainrod.
Thanks for that. The zip file i downloaded had the SSD Sampler 1.07 AU 32 Setup.mkg, a RTAS and a VST 32.
I opened it up in Pacifist app (when there was no sign of 64 bit in logic 9 or in my components file only 32 bit)
but there were no signs of any 64 bit contained in it hense my original post.
Could anyone help without bitchin' ?
