Just run "regsvr32 <name of dll>" to register your DX plugin.

In my case I would run:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Plugins\Pantheon.dll"


(quotes necessary since "Program Files" contains a space character)

But the thing is DC, is that the only way to see the CLSID in the Plugin Manger is to click on the actual plugin.  And since he can do that, and get a CLSID#, the pluging has an entry in the registry.  If he can see the plugin in the Manger, then he should be able to add it to a menu.
 
Interesting....
 
 
 

Just for general info DX is still supported by SONAR X1, as is evidenced by the fact that Sonitus fx are still there working away as always.

The issue is that unless the DX fx or intruments are ported to 64 bit they wont work in X1 x64 as there is no BitBridge for DX/DXi like there is for VST/VSTi.

I'm thoroughly confused as to where or what the OP has installed. He says they don't show up in the Plugin manager but talks about their CLSID which is only visible when you highlight a DX/DXi in the centre column of the Plugin Manager.

Lexicon is working 64 bit for me; PerfectSpace, however, is still 32 bit.

Thanks, Larry.  If that's true about Lexicon, I wonder what Cake says to customers whose livelihood depends on the work it does for million dollar customers and whose effects just stop working.  At the very least there should be a migration path or something.  I'm disappointed.  Anyone from Cakewalk want to chime in?   Thorne

Thorn, My bad Lexicon is working here under Win7 64x. Sorry for the confu

You're right Katherine. The plugin will only show up in Plugin Manager if it is registered. But I interpreted thornev's comment to be that he saw the CLSID in the missing plugins dialog, not in Plugin Manager. I confess to being a little confused as well. My guess is that he uninstalled the DX plugins (at least Pantheon) when he uninstalled the old versions of Sonar. If so, I think he should just be able to register it again to get it show up in X1. Interesting stuff.


Best regards,

mudgel - The CLSID is displayed when you click in a track's effects bin and double-click the missing effect.  Thorne

Katherine - I cannot see the plugin in the Plugin Manager.  I can see it as a missing effect in the track's effects bin.  Thorne

That's exactly what I see if I add Pantheon to a project, close the project, close X1, unregister Pantheon, run X1, reopen project and double-click on the effect.

Wow...I gotta remember that procedure if it ever happens to me.   It is wacked, but interesting.
