I am now able to use any Creamware an 3rd-party device while in Tracktion (any VST-host should work). Have not really checked if this has been posted before though
.Here is how to:
1. Delete your SFPDevicesXTC directory.
2. Make a copy SFPDevices and rename it to SFPDevicesXTC.
3. Now, locate the directory that you installed XTC in. In that direcory you will see a lot of direcories which should be familiar to you. The idea is to mirror all the .dll's to your .dev/.mdl-files in your SFPDevicesXTC directory - that is, copy and rename .dll's to what ever .dev or .mdl file you wish to load.
These .dll-files are identical and contain only wrapper-code, but your VST-host needs to see each XTC-plug.
You can ignore the "Stereo" and "Mono" directory as they only include some trash .dev files - I don't think they are used anywhere.
Example (How to load an instance of "Vinco M" in your VST-host):
My "Vinco M.dev" is located in SFPDevicesXTCDynamic.
I installed XTC in the standard Steinberg "VST Plugins"-directory. I would thus locate VST PluginsXTCDynamic. There I will see a bunch of .dll-files - i.e. "Compressor M.dll".
I would then make a copy of "Compressor M.dll" and rename it to "Vintage M.dll".
You would need to repeat these steps for EACH individual plguin you would wish to use in your VST-host.
----
Any plugin you can load with the MultiFX -> <InsertPLugHere>-routine, you should be able to load with the proceedure above.
Plugins that I have not managed to load:
- Device's ISON filter (stere and mono). - the other ISON's work well (trakker and full).
