A Must Have for Protools

by Mark Shanaway from Pittsburgh, PA USA

If you have a Digidesign system you know how expensive RTAS plug ins can be. There are thousands of free VSTs out there (some as good or better than their commercial counterparts) and this software ... read more [+]puts them all at your fingertips. If you only ever buy one plug for your PT system, this is the one to get! close [-]

Works Great!

The VST to RTAS Adapter works great for me on a wide variety of VST plugins. I have Pro Tools 7 with HD3 Accel. I was getting some error messages when I first installed the adapter, but I reinstalle... read more [+]d it and it works perfectly. It opens up a world of additional plug-ins and integrates seemlesly with Pro Tools. In Pro Tools just go to your RTAS plug-ins and all your VST plugs will be listed there and ready to go. I work with both Steinberg Wavelab and Pro Tools. This adapter makes it easy to use many of the same plug-ins in both. I would have given it 5 stars had it worked right before having to reinstall it that first time. Now it works perfectly. I highly recommend it. close [-]

Okay, but

It does a very good job of picking up all your RTAS plug ins and allows you to run them as VST plug ins. It picked all IK MultiMedia, Addictive Drums, all Native Instruments and they all worked. How... read more [+]ever the reason I bought it was to use Vocal Magic as a RTAS but it kept crashing my system. It seems to work better with the high dollar RTAS plug ins than the cheaper VST plug ins. close [-]

Using the wrapper with Stylus RMX

by Russell Jack from Utah
July 1, 2005
Music Background:
I purchased this product to run Stylus RMX in Pro Tools on my PC. I have been very dissatisfied with this wrapper. It does work, but that's about it. Stylus will load, but very slowly. I have... read more [+] a top of the line PC, and there is no excuse for this product to perform this poorly. My computer hangs up EVERY time I run Stylus. The other Spectrasonics instruments have not given me any problems (they are RTAS compatible already). Recording in Pro Tools with Stylus RMX is nearly impossible, as is playback. Stylus is an amazing program. But either run it on a Mac, or in a sequencer that hosts VST, or wait for the Spectrasonics RTAS upgrade! close [-]
