@John-Madsen Can you please describe your problem exactly? Screenshots of error messages are always welcome here. What license issues?

Hi,

On the site it says, "

Available for free

Frontier is available only for registered D16 software users, who have purchased any product in the past or will do it in the future. It is available free of charge."

Thus, you have to be registered. Are you?

Hi

It looks like the installer is looking for another installed, and licenced, D16 program before it will continue.

Having an account with D16 is not enough.

Hi John.

I know that the D16 website seems to say that another D16 product needs to be installed but..

I downloaded the Frontier installer, ran it, created a D16 account, Frontier activated and I can use it in MM, Adobe Audition and (though not yet tested) presumably with Reaper also.

@John-Madsen

I honestly have no idea why the install fails for you, especially since you already have a D16 product, but is successful for me! I think this is a question you may have to raise with D16.

@John-Madsen, I have the same problem, with the same edition of the music maker premium edition 2021, I think it would have to be 32 bits, just like the other plugins, see the print

Support could update to help us

loopvinyl wrote on 3/16/2021, 7:34 PM

@John-Madsen, while we waited for the support to be updated, I managed to solve it as follows, I accessed the website D16 Group Audio Software and downloaded the 32-bit version, made the registration and created a user and password. When clicking on the + command in the magix music maker, Frontier 32 bits appeared and clicking on it will ask for your login and password,

you can now use it,

@loopvinyl

Welcome to the Magix user to user forum.

Since MM 2021, version 29.x, is 64 bit I cannot see how installing the 32 bit version of Frontier is really going to help, sorry! I know that the Premium variant of MM 2021 includes the VSTBridge (to allow 32 bit VSTs etc., to run in the 64 bit program), but ...

As I posted above I have the 64 bit version installed and running without issue!

Hi and welcome to the forum.

. . . . I have the same problem, with the same edition of the music maker premium edition 2021, I think it would have to be 32 bits, . . . .

The 64 bit VST works in Music Maker (MMM) 2021 with no issues.

Has your MMM 2021 been activated with its own serial number or did you have a previous version of MMM installed.

Which editions do you have activated - see images below to find out which are actually activated?

You should see the MMM 2021 Plus and Premium versions are activated, below which you may have older versions included as shown below

I had the same issue with Frontier :

i couldn t load the VST frontier in Magix Music maker ( premiem 2021 ) . It was absent in the menu of VSTs FX

As the VST asks a registration from the host program ( so Magix Maker in our case ) , there was no possibilities to register the VST

I had tried with the default version used in the magix Store , and it has failed ( as already described )

I have tried to download the 64 bit version of VST Frontier , and it has failed too ( as already described )

 

Nevertheless , i have downloaded the 32 bit version of VST Frontier, and , this time , the BST was present in my menu of VSTs FX

So i have been able to finish the registration

 

But now , i have an another issue when the VST Frontier runs .. How it accepts midi commands ? When i activate the track to use my Novation mini launckey MK IIII ( with the knobs ), the sound is broken
