Hey all,
I have installed and am running on Win 10 64 with a modern computer. 10th gen i7 with 32GB ram.
After much work, I got everything running smoothly. PARIS is rock solid and sounding as good as I remember.
I purchased Waves platinum. All of the plugins I was running on my old system were from circa 1999 when I first started picking up PARIS hardware.
Now, though, I can't seen any plugs, other than the EDS effects. When I boot, nothing loads on the PARIS loading screen for DX effects like they used to. Also, I have tried multiple VST paths and nothing would happen, until, now, I get a pop up window while booting that says, "Could not find any Waves plugins. Please reinstall waves plugins in order to use waveshell."
I have used the 9.X installer. Reinstalled multiple times. Nada. Is there any way to use these plugs with PARIS, or do I have to just go back to my old 90's plugs?
Thanks,
Phil

Hi Phil.
Waves have ditched DX versions of their plugins.
I have had success with enabling newer VST plugins using one or more of these free plugins.
1) An old version of FXpansion VDX33 wrapper.
Download here:
http://download1476.mediafire.com/b1xutmowpslg/tw5ug39m2pncy m5/vdx33b2.zip
2) VB Audio FFX-4. It also is a wrapper (Yo!!) but has the bonus of being able to chain 4 plugins, and save them as a configuration (including all settings for all plugs), and only use ONE of the 4 available native FX inserts in PARIS.
Available here:
https://www.kvraudio.com/product/ffx-4-by-vb-audio
Once you have installed the (usually) bloated Waves plugin packs, you may like to hide them from the Paris native plugins list. This tool lets you disable/re-enable them at will. (Unlike the old Analog-X 'DXman", which deletes registry entries, so you can't retrieve the plugins. VB Plugman just runs as an executable, without any install. (As does the FXpansion VDX wrapper) It is available here:
http://download847.mediafire.com/c2va0ya68mzg/inpuhdfv3cbqxb 0/VB_plugman.zip
With a bit of luck, you should be aqble to use the newer waves Plugins once wrapped with one or both of the above wrappers.
Cheers,
Kim
