Hi,
I recently installed the Waves Bundle v9 on my Windows 8 Pro 64bit PC. Unfortunately I ran into an issue while trying to use any of the Waves 9 VST Plugins. After searching forums, Google, etc. I got an idea from another post that ended up fixing my issues.
MY SYSTEM CONFIG:
Custom Build Studio PC: i7, 16GB Ram, 128 SSD (System), 2TB HD (Storage)
OS: Windows 8 Pro x64
DAW: PreSonus Studio One v2.5.1
Interface: PreSonus StudioLive 16.4.2 (Firewire)
MY SYSTEM ISSUE:
Upon starting S1 everything runs smooth with no issues. All of my plugins, except for Waves, work perfectly. If I try to use or add any of the Waves plugins nothing happens. I've tried re-installing, checking system & DAW configurations, etc with no luck.
MY SYSTEM ISSUE FIX:
Simply go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 and change the name of the file WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64 to WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64-fixed. This has cured my issues with Waves v9 in PreSonus StudioOne v2 on my Windows 8 Pro x64 system.
I hope this helps all of you that are having the same issues! Feel free to comment and chat in the comments section below to discuss other fixes for this issue. Please limit your comments to this particular topic.
