Glitch VST does nothing?

Do I just have no idea how to use this plugin, or does it not do anything?

I saw a video of it in action- it was pretty sweet.
For me, the only knobs that change the sound are the Overdrive and Master Output.

Anybody use it? 
Am I a moron?  (don't answer that).

Hehe, I love Glitch.

How are you inserting it - precisely?  I suspect you aren't routing properly or setting it up proprely in Sonar.

Are you trying to "trigger" it via MIDI ?

John makes a good point to check.

Like many MIDI controllable VST effects, they have to be handled different in Sonar than most other DAWS.

In Sonar - go into PluginManager and find the dblue_Glitch in "Effects" and change it's properties to be "Configure as Synth".   Then exit pluginmanager.

In Sonar, insert Glitch into the FX BIN by right clicking in it and choose "Soft Synths" as opposed to "Audio Effects".   Don't worry - it will work the same way.

So choose Glitch and insert it as usual onto the audio track you want to effect.

Play the track -- play with the knobs and you'll hear the effects (try different presets to see how it works).  The manual isn't that big, so take it to the bathroom on your next sit-down ;)

Glitch, along with The Finger and other such effects, are really fun plugins.

Inserting as above you can also create a new MIDI track (NOT simple instrument track, just a plain old MIDI track) and point it to Glitch.  Now you can use that MIDI track to 'trigger' / control Glitch even more.

Have fun :)

some plugs need to be enabled as a tempo based effect. via plugin manager.

Good point, true dat :)

thanks, ill be back in the studio at 6.   cant wait to try it out!

Check out the new Stutter Edit VST from Izotope also.

update:

It works when I set it as a synth.
It doesn't work when I set it as tempo based.

It's impossible to set it as both for some reason.

After going back and forth a few times, it just vanished from my menu, even tho it showed up in the manager.  ?

I don't know how to get it to show up again.

For the 5 minutes i had it working, it was nice.  (sigh)

Very cool.
Glitch is working great.  My hiphop clients will be jumping around high-fiving when i bust this out.
Too bad the vst mapping on my C4 is so random.

Where can I get "The Finger"?

uuhhg.   I feel filthy after asking that....

The Finger is not a standalone plugin.   It can be used with Kore 2 or Reaktor.   I'm not sure if it works in the free Kore player or not -- you'd have to check on that.
