Then completely close your host and run the installer of the Electra2 full version. To fix your hybrid installation you first should remove all ElectraX files (except the t2k keyfiles) from your system:ġ) Delete Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST/ElectraX.vstĢ) Delete Library/Audio/Plug-ins/components/ponentģ) Delete Library/Audio/Plug-ins/ElectraX_soundsģ) Delete Library/Audio/Plug-ins/ElectraX_data In general you should never do hybrid installations of serveral versions of software, since this can lead to unexpected side effects.
We don't recommend that you install serveral versions of Electra at the same time, since Electra2 is downward compatible, but the old ElectraX is not upward compatible with Electra2. If you got technical problems please follow these instructions: If everything works as expected you should not touch anything on your system.
From the technical aspect Apple's AU plugin system handles a 32 bit and 64 version of a plugin as two 'different' plugins (which is imho a rather stupid design decision). That's why you might see the plugin twice.
Your old projects which still load ElectraX seem to be created in 32-bit mode (ElectraX v1.2 or earlier), while the newer ones seem to use the 64 bit version which is only available from v1.3 or higher. The directory names and file names on your system seem to be correct. To maintain this downward compatibility it is necessary that file names, directory names and Plugin IDs remain the same. You are able to load your old song projects made with ElectraX with Electra2. Electra2 seems to works as expected on your system.Įlectra2 is 100% downward compatible with ElectraX 1.3 or higher.
