blue cat remote implementation

[lancaster6]

i have the demo version if blue cat remote, and i'm trying to follow the directions (posted on the new forum) which seem very complete except for the very first step. are you supposed to add blue cat remote as an instrument? i can see blue cat remote 64 on the find vsts page, but when i click add instrument, blue cat is not available to add. maybe because it's a demo version?, or am i doing something wrong?
thx,

Yes, you add it as an instrument module and enable it's VMI output.
It should be available to choose from forte's plugin list

evilantal, when you get a chance, would you please check to see if; when you click on + instrument, blue cat is an available choice. it is not for me. i have now bought the bluecat software, rescanned vst plugins successfully (bluecat remote control 8, 16 and 64 show in the scan window), and the instrument is still not available as a choice. i tried 2 versions of forte, and am now using the newest, no love.
thx,

I'm 99% certain that that's the way I did it. Been a while, though...

I don't have the plugin installed anymore (nor do I own it anymore). But if I have some free time I'll try it out with the demo version. That'll be after the weekend at the earliest, though.

If liveplayer reads this, he can tell you exactly how it's done in his real-life working rack implementation. Maybe shoot him a PM?

I know this is something close to a dead thread (by age only) but I use Blue Cat Remote by adding as an insert to a Bus. Not sure if this is the "correct" method but I guess it doesn't really matter as you just want to feed into it via its VMI (when activated). Works a treat (just a shame it' such a small GUI - I'm sure I could edit this but it works for me)!
