I lost all my saved states in Syntronik on multiple rackspaces. (IK is not so strong in bug fixing or avoiding bugs in the first place.)
I think this is more likely to happen if I do not use those rackspaces for a while. Maybe it happens as a result of a Windows update? Maybe I am wrong, but I feel comfortable if I go through them within a few days beforehand, this won’t happen at a gig.
I think its a bit quicker to find the sound (or maybe a similar one) on Syntronik than replace it with V Collection. So, that is what I am doing. But going forward, I am going to lean heavily toward use of V Collection, which also has the benefit of using less ram.
So, I am spending a few hours going back and finding them (or maybe replacing them if I find a sound that works). I wish I had at least written down the name of the presets, which I usually only tweak moderately.
So, now I AM writing down the name of each preset in case this happens.
It is probably also a good idea to save the preset, since Syntronik seems to have a glitches in returning to its “saved state”.
So, any thought (pros and cons) of saving the preset in Syntronik versus as a preset in GP. (I was inclined to do the former, but figured I would throw this out there).
So GP User presets capture the state of a plugin and as long as an update of a plugin can handle loading the state from a previous version of that plugin, there’s no issue. But we have no control over that so if a newer version of a plugin can’t handle older state, all bets are off.
Now, in principle, if a plugin has its own preset management, then the plugin should be able to handle loading a preset from an older version but obviously that also assumes that the plugin was properly developed to support that. Again, we have no control over that.
I don’t even think there was any change in the version of the plugin (Syntronik 2). I have no idea why it stopped loading in the saved states (I have no doubt it is not a bug with GP).
I guess the primary backup should be saving the preset within Syntronik itself because eliminates the issue of loading in a saved stated.
If I wanted to go even further, I suppose I could do both. (Along with having notes of the name of each Syntronik preset).
I’ve found the same issue. I have made absolutely no change to my gig file and yet … I started using SampleTank and Syntronik recently… found all the right sounds for my gig, saved the file on a regular basis, I now go to start rehearsing the whole show and have found that ALL SampleTank and Syntronik sounds are blank. The VST is there but there are no sounds loaded within … I am so Peed off …
Has anyone come up with the solution or is this a bug within IK?
Do all synths of Syntronik face the issue?
Is there a difference between Syntronik V1 and V2 patches?
With V1 and V2 I mean the patch versions and not the version of Syntronik
So does the issue occur for both ?
May this padlock have anything to do with this issue?
I recovered this synth before leaving home, saved the gig files and closed the system. I just opened up GP and have found that THIS is the only one with the padlock activated and is the only ST instrument that worked correctly. i.e. the synth sound was in its place.
I “think” my problem was I used Syntronic on two different laptops. And the folders I selected with Syntronik for finding the sounds were not exactly the same. There was some discrepancy.
I think once I ensured the file paths were exactly the same and the folders I told Syntronik to find each synth were the same, I think this eliminated my problem.
On the other hand, I am not sure because I rarely use Syntronik these days (if I can use a physically modeled option, I prefer that try to moderate the amount of ram I use).
This probably does not help, but yo never know…[I know nothing about the padlock]
