Hi folks,
I am not able to run any of my VST(3) Plugins bought from Plugin Alliance. They are all blacklisted (shown in red in the Settings dialog), and also multiple clear & rescan does not make them available, as advised in the Merging online help. I am running Pyramix 11.1.4.
Plugin Alliance Plugins need to be registered once showing up in the DAW. If I can’t get them into Pyramix, I can’t even register them.
Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks.
Best, Stephan

Re: VST/VST3 Plugins blacklisted - can’t use them
I have the same problem and this is the answer of merging support:
Unfortunately this is a known issue with most of Plugin Alliance's plugins and Pyramix 11.1.x.
The only ones working are the Lindell series, the Unfiltered Audio series and the DearVR one. This affects both the VST2 and VST3 versions of the plugins. We have contacted PA and they have looked into the it and have been able to reproduce the issue. They are apparently planning to release a new version mid-November that could take care of the problem.
For your information the issue relates to a Juce https://juce.com compatibility problem on their side which is a library we use as of Pyramix v11.1 for VST and VST3 support.

Re: VST/VST3 Plugins blacklisted - can’t use them
I had the same problem with a recent install of the Lexicon PCM Native Reverb set. Four of the plugins were blacklisted. A rescan and reinstall didn't help. But the following advice from Merging did.
1- Close Pyramix and go to C:\ProgramData\Merging Technologies\Plugins then…
2- Rename or delete the AvailablePlugins.pms file and delete any files that have a .crash extension.
3- Relaunch Pyramix.
This worked for me. PMX Native 11.1.5.
