I installed from the dvds.   I have my license in the folder.  sonar just isnt seeing it.  the directions tell open a stereo instrument track in your daw and then insert it.  IT just flat out doesn't see ssd.  




Try looking for it in the plug-in manager; you may have to add it to your soft-synth list manually.

Am I supposed to download more from the web site? (besides the license) even though I installed from the dvds?

Forgive me for asking a dumb question, but since you're still having problems, did you check to see that the folder that contains ssdsampler.dll is listed in the plug-in manager search path?  To check this, go to "VST Configuration" toward the bottom of the plug-in manager and click "Options."  Make sure that the folder that contains the dll is listed.  If not, add it to the list.

I don't think you even need to have the actual sound files or license to start the GUI -- just the dll-file.  You can load those after you start the GUI.

ok   I will try that  I did realize that I needed to install the sampler and the library.  which means that after putting disc 2 in to complete the library install  I had to put disc 1 in again  so now I have a dll file at least    but I still cant seem to steer the plug in manager to it.  I will try more tomorrow   thanks again everyone
