I am pretty sure that if you save an fxp file it save the current state of your VST.

If it is of any help, here is the patch I use with Kore. Hope it is helpful.

neat patch! clean =)

Well, I don't know why, but it's working now. at least when it loads. I think the problem was that I had automated the x+y controller that blends the timbre's together on, so maybe it confused the write? :shrug: THANKS!

new problem - when building an application, it doesn't want to load kore.vst =,( this makes me sad. even when I add it explicitly.

ahhh!!!!! this is frustrating. the only way to load it is to use the "plug" message and select it in finder!!!! I can't even just "plug kore.vst"

selecting it in the finder does exactly the same, it also results in a message "plug filename" into [vst~]

"plug kore.vst" sounds pretty wrong btw, except your copy of kore is called "kore.vst.vst", which i doubt.

anytime I reference files I always use extensions. Why would using "plug kore.vst" put 2 .vst extensions on the request? Also, "plug kore.vst" works fine when using max/msp; not after I've build the application.

thanks for your help!

Not sure why "plug kore.vst" works.

This works for me as a patch and as a standalone, I have an actual Kore somewhere if we find out it makes a difference.

ok. using [vst~ kore] doesn't work. using "plug kore" doesn't work. my way using extensions doesn't work. Using standalone and 'search for missing files' doesn't work.

for some reason I got rid of my "kore.vst" and re-copied the original "Kore Player.vst" and used exactly what you put, and it works..... can someone explain why?

And why this happens?

"vst~: can't find plug-in, using default vst~: The 1 parameter of Default is: vst~: Gain vst~: Kore Player.vst has 130 parameters"

I'm using a blank [vst~] object and the only time I load a vst~ is with the message "plug Kore Player"

thanks man. I really appreciate your help

"plug Kore Player" is syntactically wrong.

plug "Kore Player" is what you want. The vst~ object knows where your system VSTs are and to append the file extension, but for VSTs with multi word names the argument to load them must be a symbol.

The messages you see in the Max window are the result of initialising the vst~ object with no arguments and then correctly loading Kore Player.

@Andrew - yes, in the above example I should've listed it 'plug "Kore Player"', even after you gave me that example I missed it and was confused 0.o. Thanks for clarifying the max window also. I'm trying to make this patch as streamlined and light as possible. I really appreciate it!
