    After following step by step instructions from waves on installing I found I had to rebuild all my custom folders in plugin manager. No fun. But everything works fine now and is running great.

    Ditto that carl...there is definitely a noticeable CPU savings by runnin the Plugins
    in the Rack.

    About a Month ago Waves gave all their customers a Plugin Manager Strip called
    StudioRack...the SoundGrid version is $450...

    you can still get the Native Version Free..

    Gosh, I feel very stupid now. I grabbed it the first day and managed to do nothing more than trash my Waves files. Better sign up for some night school classes.

    Don't feel bad John...there was quite a bit of "mess" created initially...
    they got it squared away pretty quickly luckily...but there are some definite
    steps that need to be followed for it to function properly...

    I haven't played with it yet but I must say I don't really understand the point. Apart from slightly better performance, why would I ever use this? Can someone explain?

    sounds like the Cakewalk manager changed the Class numbers ....mmmm exactly what i fear !!
     
    Better performance ? looks really strange .....anyone could post a screen with lest say 20 heavy plugin on 20 tracks and same via the rack ?

    It offers the ability to save custom presets.  Also, 3rd party support is forthcoming.
    I recommend watching the Groove 3 StudioRack Tutorial if you got the 30 day pass...
     
    If you didn't, use code:  eventide30day
     
    That will get you 30 days free...but it ends tomorrow, so do it quick...

    I don't really do it much but I thought I could already save FX chains? And not stuck with one brand either?

    I failed at installing it but after thinking about it, it really reminds me of Prochannel so I figured the same thing that bothers me about the PC will bubble up in the Waves Rack and the forthcoming Slate Virtual Rack, as well.
