Hi Peter, tested Metaplugin but it crashes the editor. I read other posts on the interwebs and many people are reporting that it crashes their DAW. I'll leave the request for the developer here and hope they see it and implement it. I'll keep an eye out for the newer versions of APO. Many thanks for the support.

Thank you Peter for taking time and investing the issue. I see Juha suggests Metaplugin, but the problem is it's not free. Moreover routing audio through more plugins will introduce latency that I'm trying to avoid. It would be 100 times better if the APO could support the newer format natively. Does developer of APO even read these discussion ? I see a recent update so maybe they are still around. Hope springs eternal. Many thanks for the support. Highly appreciated.

Hello Peter, thank you for the response. VST2 is now the relic of the past. I requested some dev's to provide the VST2 version of their plugins and they responded saying that steinberg has pulled the SDK for compiling the VST2 plugins so there's nothing they can do. Right now using Analog Obsession plugins, had to dig deep into the interwebs to able to find the old VST2 versions of their plugins as everything newer is in VST3 format. Miss out on the updates and all the improvements and enhancement....

Support for VST3 plugins

Hi Etienne, Thank you for the response. I contacted the dev but I don't think anything would be done, they have moved on. Don't think supporting the old customers is on the agenda. So I re-installed APO and now editor crashes as soon as I make any change in the parameters of the plugin, also the output device (Direct Sound) gets locked up. When I go to restart Audio service it ends in error 1054, service did not responded in timely manner. Only restating the PC gets the audio back. It worked fine...

Would you be willing to check if it's working on your end ? You can download the plugin from the official store: https://www.apulsoft.ch/apqualizr2/apqualizr2-win-installer-2-5-2.exe...

Hello Etienne, Yes, you're spot on. I checked with Process Monitor and indeed the plugins look for the license information in Local Service AppData. I used a workaround and it seems to be working. I copied the license files in C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData this has resolved the issue. I've also kept all the plugins Data files (settings+Preset) in MY AppData folder for the editor and that GUI won't complain about missing license. So basically two copies, one for APO and one for editor....

I understand you, thank you for detailed response. The simple solution to the problem would be to allow Audio Service to have access to all the files located in MY AppData (C:\Users\wealstarr\AppData) this is where the license+setting are and this is the place from where the editor is reading too. 2nd option would be to run the Audio Service as Admin so that it has access to all the files everywhere. I was digging around and found this: What does Local System Account means? I also looked on the Google...

Hi Etienne, Thank you for the response and diagnosing the issue. The permission issue is most likely the cause of this. I read your documentation on the gihub, very detailed and easy to understand. The two solutions you have mentioned, first is a no-go because these plugins have a fixed directory for storing their settings and license information. So going for the second, I tried running EqualizerAPO.dll as LOCAL SERVICE to no avail. I tried to add the object "Audiosrv" in the permissions for EqualizerAPO.dll...

Paid VST plugins run in trial mode

One question: is there a profile feature to use different configurations for different apps I could use ?

Update: I have deselected the use original APO from pre and post mix and it has resolved the issue. Big thanks to Juha & community for helping me out. One thing I would like to note is that VST support is limited. Many plugins work but some do not.

Hi Juha I deleted the default configuration file and created my own with preamp filter. This is the contents of the file. Preamp: 1.6 dB

Hi, So I was looking for a system wide VSThost and discovered this program. It's exactly what I wanted but after numerous tries, I couldn't get it to work. It's processing the audio fine (checked with preamp filter) but there's no bass. It's like listening music with a 70's radio. I looked at the documentation page and especially the channel configuration part. My best guess is that it's reading the channel configuration from Windows native sound device which lists my output as L+R but I have a sub-woofer...
