V Collection Preset troubleshooting please?

Software Instruments V Collection
#1

Hey all

So I just got the V collection a couple days back and I fell in love just playing with the first few plug ins.

Then I proceeded to download the entire set and now only the very first preset pops up in each one and I can’t even see the rest of them, super strange and frustrating

Im on a Mac - Big Sur 11.7.10 and have tried rebooting, reinstalling and everything in between

any help is appreciated! thanks!

Hi Mike,

Can you share a screenshot of this happening ? the “can’t see the rest of them”?

Have you activated all your licenses in the Arturia Software Center? Sometimes people (including myself!) forget to activate on top of downloading the plug-in.

Hi Lily

sure thing, here is the activation screen that shows they are activated (again it opens on my DAW just doesn’t show any presets after the very first one on each plug in)

Hi @mikeymikey44 ,

Your preset database file might be corrupt.
I suggest you try to delete the db.db3 file located in your main preset folder on the path set for your resource folder in Arturia Software Center.
Then open Analog Lab and let it be open some time while the database file rebuild.

We need to have this fix pinned on the main forum page. “Preset problems? Try this first!” :smiley:

Yes it’s certainly a fix for many things. :smiley:

The above FAQ have been there for very long time. It has’nt been updated to the fact that people no longer need to have the files on the same path.

indeed, when in doubt, delete “db.db3” :slight_smile:

Hi, can I expand on this thread ? Over time I’ve ended up with V collection 4, 7 and 9. If we consider CS-80 In Komplete Kontrol I can scroll down and hear demos of the presets. But if I try to open the instrument by double clicking on the preset, I get a VST2 to VST3 / 32 bit vs 64 bit error presumably as I’m now running an M1 MacBook Air with Sonoma 14.4.1. My issue is there appear to be over 500 presets in Collection 7 and around 200 in V collection 9. at the moment it’s looking like to preserve and use the presets in all 3 collections I need to individually update each synth in each V collection. Is there a way to combine all the presets into the latest version of V collection I have so I only see the latest synths with all the presets from the previous version I owned ?

Hi @starsky101 ,

Please create another topic. Your issue is’nt the same.
