Plugins Disapeared....... Pleaassee Help! Urgent Options

[Slash5150]

hello everyone... my problem is hudge : I have lost the MWeq on my plugins list !!!!!!!!!!

It's been 2 weeks since I bought DP5, the EQ was there, I did few recording sessions, didnt' touch anything and suddenly , when I need it.. BAM it's gone.... in the software. I still have a "MasterWorks EQbundle in the plugins folder in the library, but it doesn't appear anymore on teh software (inserts)...
I finally uninstall DP5 with the installer CD and then re-installed it... but the problem remains : impossible to find it....

any idea???? HELPPPPPPPP

hello, I had exactly the same problem as you, and it is solved now. The problem in my case was that I used DP 4,6 and DP 5,0 and DP5,1 on the same mac, OSX tiger. After experiments, I saw that something strange happened while exporting a 5,1 project to another version of DP: the EQ plugin was gone, and some text in the MW gate etc disappeared.

I could get rid of the problem by:
* changing the language of my computer into English (I am Dutch speaking) and changing some parameters in time etc... I read something about this on the site of MOTU, they had some kind of problem with DP 4,6
* after restarting, EQ was there again
* if necesary, you can change language to the original again
* I know this solution might sound being stupid, but in my case it worked well
* throwing away the 5,1 and working further on the 5,0. In this case, I can go on with the 4,6 as well

Good luck,

Frank
