Installation of VST plug-ins

Install every VST instrument according to the manufacturer's instructions. VST instruments and VST effects are not entered into the Windows registry, but must be saved in a certain directory.

Samplitude Music Studio searches for installed VST instruments in the "VST plug-ins" program subfolder. You can install your VST instruments either in this folder, or use any other path. If you already have VST plug-ins installed on your system, then use the existing folder. You will, however, have to enter this path in the system settings ("Y") in the "Effects > VST/DirectX/ReWire" subdialog (entering multiple paths is also possible). Simply enter one path after the other; all paths will be taken into consideration. Samplitude Music Studio 2008 will automatically find newly installed plug-ins contained within the selected folders.

The first time the program is opened, a search for existing instruments and plug-ins is executed when the track settings are opened. Not only are all the plug-ins imported, but they are also checked for compatibility within the program. This search is only necessary once; the next time it is opened, the track settings will be loaded immediately.

Tip: For problems with your current configuration, you can reset all paths and installed instruments or plug-ins.

Load instruments

These are managed in Samplitude Music Studio 2008 under "Track menu -> VST instrument editor". You can also assign an instrument to each track; the instrument is selected as a MIDI playback device.

Selected instruments or their individual outputs are shown directly in the first VSTi plug-in/insert slot of the track box and mixer track and can also be muted (left click) and opened (right click) from there.

• Load an instrument by selecting a "New instrument" in the project window as a track output. This can happen at various points:

• Playback device menu (right click the "Mute" button -> MIDI -> New instrument)

• Plug-ins slot -> VSTi in the track editor

• "Insert effect slot of the mixer -> VSTi": You will only find this option in the top insert slot of the individual mixer channels.

• "Out" slot -> New instrument in the MIDI section of the track editor.

• "Out" slot -> MIDI -> New instrument in the audio section of the track editor

Software / VST instruments

Samplitude Music Studio 2008 provides the option of integrating software instruments as well as MAGIX synths (e.g. Robota Pro) into a virtual project according to VSTi standards (e.g. Sample Tank) and can be controlled via the internal MIDI functions and editors. All instruments as well as their multiple outputs are seamlessly integrated into the audio engine with all of their effects and routing options. The maximum number of instruments is limited by the performance power of your processor. You can increase this number by using the integrated freeze function.
