Solved: GUI does not open

[FischerZ]

I have the problem Worlock works in Cubase 11 prof.only in VST version 3, in Studio One 5 prof. not at all and in FL Studio only in VST version2.

I can only comment on Cubase Pro 11.

What do you mean by "Warlock only works as a VST3 plugin"?

What happens here  in Cubase is that it only SHOWS you Warlock as a VST3 and HIDES the VST2 version (so you cannot choose Warlock VST2). Unfortunately, this is what Cubase does, so consider this to be "normal" Cubase behaviour (it does this with other plugins as well). As I see it, there is nothing you can do about it.

Try this: Delete Warlock VST3 in your VST3 folder. Then you should be able to see Warlock VST2 in your instruments list (and therefore to load it).

Cubase works as expected. This host does not show the VST2 version if a VST3 version is available.

Studio1 is buggy. I made a workaround for it. However it should be fixed from the host's side, since it also affects other VST3 plugins.

I also made a workaround for FL Studio. You can fix it also from you side, if you go to settings->General->Main GUI scaling and set it to 100% instead of 125%.

The problems is caused by a bug in Steinberg's VSTGUI. I created a thread and informed Steinberg about it:

Arne from Steinberg and myself have been able to fix the problem. It was caused by a bug in Steinberg's VSTGUI. It did also affect other plugins.

I sent out an update. It includes new features, enhancements as well as the fixes requested in this thread.

I just thought I would mention here so future readers may possibly benefit. Cubase & Steinberg in general ONLY support the VST3 format in their products. The VST2 SDK has not been available to download from their site for years & they have not supported VST2.X use in their products for quite a while; at least 2 years & most likely longer. Since Yamaha bought them years ago, they don't mess around anymore. They stopped supporting 32bit plugins about the same time as Apple did. I thinkVST2 plugins got the boot shortly after the VST3 protocol became widely accepted & were stable enough to trust. If I recall correctly (which is rare) VST2s were already out (the 32bit version) when Windows XP was released.

Markus is the only one who can make VST2 synths that work correctly & of course sound excellent.
