Hi, I'm running Sonar X2 Studio 64 bit on Windows 7 64 bit.
 
I've just purchased and installed NI Komplete 9. All the files for the VST plugins are visible in my VST directories.
 
Reaktor 5, Kontakt 5, Absynth, Battery etc are all showing as soft synths and VST effects.
 
However Guitar Rig 5, Solid Bus Comp / Dynamics / EQ, Transient Master are not showing.
 
I've rescanned the VST folders a number of times, started Sonar as administrator, NOT started Sonar as administrator, but no good, can't see them. I'm really tearing my hair out, is this a known issue at all?
 
Cheers, Rob.

Reaktor, kontakt, Absynth and Battery are all synths (although Reaktor can be used as an FX processor as well)
 
GR5, Solid bus etc etc are all FX. 
 
To view GTR8 In track view, create a new audio track and insert an EFFECT into the track (right click in the FX dark grey box), GTR5 et all should all appear in there under "AudioFX\VST Plugins 64bit"
 
If this isnt the case then you havent set your VST scan folder to look for your NI 64 bit plugs/synth/

Hi Markyzno, thanks for the reply.
 
I don't have an option "VST Plugins 64bit" under "Audio FX". Under "Soft Synths" I have an option "vstplugins". 
 
So that sounds like a problem. Its a standard install, is there something I've configured wrongly?
 
 

OK, SOLVED!
 
For whatever reason, my menu layout for audio effects didn't include vst plugins.
 
After a quick google, I went to "Utilities" > "Cakewalk Plugin Manager", and found the list of VST Audio Effects included all the missing plugins. I selected the layout file, added an new directory for VST, and dragged all the VST plugins into it.
 
The new menu shows in the FX window for the track, and the VST Audio effects can be added.
 
If anyone can shed some light on why I have a non-standard configuration here, I'd be very interested.
 

Just sounds like the place that NI installed the 64 bit plugin files and you had to repoint? 
 
If so, thats normal for Komplete.

No, I'd selected the correct directories for NI to install the plugins, and Sonar had detected and loaded the plugins. The issue was some custom menu layout in Sonar, that can be edited under "Utilities" > "Cakewalk Plugin Manager". The plugins were there, there just was no menu option to show them.
 
I don't remember changing anything that would have done this, but something happened somewhere.
 
Anyway, thanks for your help.
