@Kaleb-Burlingame Have you bought the VST functionality in the shop?

I got one vst working, but every other one requires "VST bridge". Where can I get this?

@Kaleb-Burlingame Have you bought the VST functionality in the shop?

wait nvm I found it. I recall having some magix tokens or something, could I use those to purchase them?

@Kaleb-Burlingame Do you mean the Soundpool coupons? They are only for Soundpools and not for features.

I used a Magix coupon to buy the VST bridge.

Can someone finally answer to main question?

@ErtY

Welcome to the Magix forums.

The answer is in the different posts in this thread!

First, ensure that your version of MM actually can use any non-Magix VST or VSTi. I think MM EDM cannot without the add-on which allows this.

Once you are sure your software can use VSTs, install them, and point MM to the folder(s) where the .dll files for them are installed. (I have dedicated folders for those files, one for only VST Effects and one for only VST Instruments. You do not need to do this unless you want to, it is simply a means for me to separate the two types of VSTs because I also have software that cannot use VST Instruments.) Allow MM to scan those folders. VST Effects should then show up on the appropriate screen, VST Instruments should be listed under the Instruments listing.

Important caveat: MM EDM is a 32 bit application. If any of your VSTs are 64 bit they will NOT be shown or be usable unless you also purchase and install the VST Bridge.

Back in 2019, I was using 32 bits VST plugins without any problems. Seems you changed the software without asking me and added for 10 euro a function to load VSTs?!

Music Maker is free, that's what changed. In 2019 you had to purchase an Edition like Premium to use VSTs or get the free program and pay 10 of your currency or perhaps one of the cheaper Editions and pay 10 of your currency. We didn't change the software. We are not "you". Features that were available in 2019 can still be added to later versions. I bought MM2019 Premium Edition and added vst functionality as one of the free feature options and can still add that functionality to the latest version. I think the problem is you're not understanding how the program works and are choosing to rudely blame Magix instead.

Hi,

Music Maker Version 2022 is free; Editions, like Premium, Plus, EDM are not. To get an Edition to work, you need Music Maker installed. If you have a previous Edition of Premium, like 2021, it will show up when you log in (Join) in MM2022 and you will have access to whatever you had before. To unlock all New features of the new Version of MM2022, you need to either purchase and activate Premium Edition 2022, or buy them one by one (more expensive). Either way, there will be things to be Downloaded and Installed under the Downloads tab.

MM2022 is a 64 bit version, as was MM2021 (first 64 bit version) so you will need 64 bit VST's and VSTi's. If you want to use 32 bit VST's, you need to purchase the VST Bridge, as was pointed out, or get an Edition, like Premium 2022 which comes with the Premium Edition. See the Comparison chart on Magix.com for the new features and what comes with what.

You're just trying to protect the deceiving company.

@ErtY

No, and I have no idea what you are talking about.

I am always trying to explain to users how it works.
