In the 50/60's Monk Montgomery did ok (great) with it, he seemed to get that natural decay and lovely thick round tone of an Upright, he was also a good DB player that could swing nicely, which helped...but yep, they are few and far between. Garry

Most freebies (not all) are usually just .dll files that don't need registration, and they can be dragged and dropped anywhere you want, but on a lot of 3rd party VST/VSTi's that come with libraries and presets, the .dll will only install from the original disc. [size=4]Mainly because you have to do the serial number/challenge and response/iLok thing before it will go any further[/size] [size=4]Or in the case of Native Instruments, the service centre thing.[/size] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZfT2T1wRzo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZfT2T1wRzo[/url]

One will be 32 bit version plugs (x86) the other of course x64 versions. Some Vsts/Vsti's install a Vst3 version as well. If Reaper can handle VST3's, they will be in .....

[quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1379617109' post='2214967'] [size=4]C:\Program Files\VstPlugins is where the 64 bit plugins are installed by default.[/size] C:\Program Files (x86)\VstPlugins are where the 32 bit plugins are installed by default. I'd highly recommend sticking to these locations. [/quote] It's worth a mention that sometimes... If a VST or VSTi has an installer, it will sometimes use or create a folder called Steinberg. So it would be... C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VstPlugins (for 64 bit) Then direct your DAW to that folder as well as \VstPlugins, and scan/re-scan both folders. Garry
