Hi everyone! 
As I said in the title, my Sonar Platinum doesn't recognize Waves plugins 64 bit..
If I put the 32 bit waveshell in the VST folder, and then I search, I found everything. If I erase the shells, and I put the 64 bit one's in the same folder, when i search again Sonar doesn't find anything...
 
Someone can help me?
Thank you all!

I've never done a "manual" Waves install that way. Just use Waves Central and install in a folder that Sonar scans. If it doesn't work, Waves support is really good, drop them a line.

same here. I did a default installation lately using Waves Central and the installer placed the plugs in a different folder than I had used before, so I had to add that to the VST path - but that was all, everything is working fine here with WAVES 64 bit

That's all you need to do.

This is what I did. My trying with the shells was only to figure out the real problem.
 
Someone else have an idea?

Are you sure you have Sonar pointing to the correct VST paths?
 
My Waves plugs are here:
 
C:\Program Files\VstPlugIns
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
 
(Yours may not be the same.  Point is, verify the paths are correct).
 
If they are, try a reset (important) and rescan.

When you do the re-scan be sure that you use the reset option in the plug in manager.
