I am actually a drummer from London in the 1960/70’s and was playing in the UK up until 2016 with an old Hayman kit (ex Love Affair, not me the kit) + Paiste cymbals that I still use for acoustic work, those were the days, what a melting pot that was. The Fishman/Fender Stratocaster came bundled with Studio One and Fishman Triple Play Wireless, I did not use a laptop at the time and as it required Mac or Windows I purchased a Toshiba Satellite + Windows 8 for the job and my love affair with midi guitar went to another level. Up until August 2014 when I purchased the above mentioned Fishman/Fender Stratocaster I was using Linux as my preferred OS + Ardour, I was distro hopping to find the best combination for my systems and had also paid for my Casio 510 guitar to be fixed, it had the infamous capacitor problems. I must mention that I had a problem with a few other plugins, Manda Audio have released a new version of the MT Power Drum Kit so that one is solved on the M1 if someone else has the same problem. Good news I have retrieved the old files thanks to Time Machine and as an interim solution will work in SO v5 for midi guitar work then export the rendered wav files/stems to v6, I also forgot to mention OS’s and hardware, also a bit of background, I like my stories. Is there going to be an upgrade for Midi Guitar 2 from VST to VST3 as I need to to plan my next move.Īny positive advice is welcome at this stage. In my haste I had not realised that Studio One 6 no longer recognises the old VST format as I assume that it is 32 bit and unfortunately now it does not show up in the plugins manager and the alert box states that is is missing, still there in v5. The problem, this week Presonus Studio One has been updated from 5 to 6 and I have been busy moving my gig set-lists to the new format to take advantage of the new features. I own a Fender Stratocaster with the Fishman TriplePlay pickup and have used it for a long time so I have something to compare it with, I also have an old Casio 510 Midi guitar from a very long time ago. I purchased Midi Guitar 2 back in May and have been very pleased with the results, especially as I can now use any guitar that I wish to use to trigger midi.

My first post, I will try to get more details of my gear up when time allows, life is hectic at the moment.
