I had a 15 hour struggle in the studio recently. All my Cubase 7 (64 Bit) projects refused to load without crashing. Even projects that I was working on the very day before.
- This will create a folder called something like iTerm2-10020121224 which you should open to reveal the iTerm.app file. Drag that file into your Applications folder on your Mac and you have now installed iTerm2. Open Applications and double click on iTerm.app to launch iTerm2 as shown in the below example.

I re-installed, searched, cleaned, refreshed preferences, you name it, I tried it…
15 hours later I was still unable to load any of my projects without Cubase disappearing into the dark depths where all dead project go.
The next morning I woke up and with a fresh head, found myself a cure within 30 minutes (based on the research I had done the day before). So I thought this would be worth sharing, as during my search I found many folks with similar trouble and no solution.
The first step was realising that if I removed the Waves plugins from my system the problem went away.
Symptoms:
- Windows 64 Bit System
- 64 Bit DAW Host
- Usually Windows 8 but can be Windows 7 – Must be 64 Bit
- Cubase crashes when loading a project that contains ANY Waves plugins
- Cubase crashes when inserting ANY Waves plugin into a fresh project
- I am using Cubase here but it could be any 64 Bit DAW host application
I found a post related to a different issue that suggested renaming the WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64 file. This file is found here and this put me on the right path:
C:Program FilesCommon FilesVST3
I renamed the file to WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64_BLAH.vst3
Wow! Success!
All my projects loaded again… But it is not over yet.
Waveshell crashes again and now the projects will not load again even with the renamed file, unless it was renamed yet again. Renaming it back to the original WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64.vst3 still causes crashes… What is going on?
I had already done a clean install of all related applications, Waves, Cubase etc., And also cleaned registry of everything that mentioned Waves before re-installing…
Finally I decided to search the registry for WaveShell-VST3… Low and behold the solution – A very odd registry key gets added if the Waveshell crashes. After which, any subsequent load of the Waveshell causes the host (Cubase) to crash.
Full Solution:
- Windows 64 Bit is affected (although it mentioned 8 it can also be 7)
- Waves (shell) crashes once
- Waveshell gets added to the reg key with “IgnoreFreeLibraries” with reference to Cubase (or whatever caused the crash).
- Waveshell will now crash every time it is loaded / used (unless the shell is renamed)
- Solution – DELETE the registry DATA contained in this key (as highlighted in my screenshot) that relates to your DAW host
How to find the key: Search registry for “WaveShell-VST3 9.2_x64” and you will find the odd key with IgnoreFreeLibrary Free dubstep sample packs for fl studio 12. associated.
Do not search for AppCompatFlags as it will bring up tons of irrelevant stuff.
Here is my reg key area:
This may of course be different for another machine so it probably better to use the search method as mentioned above. Notice in my screenshot that Wavelab also had the same problem.
Bookmark this key and if you suffer this problem go back and DELETE the registry DATA contained in this key that relates to your DAW host.
Back It up first if you are concerned.
So anyone on Win 64 experiencing Waves crashes – And I mean total Waves crashes – ie. Nothing VST3 works. It may be worth checking.
I have contacted Waves and they are working on a solution.
OK that is all. Thank you and goodnight.

I’m seeing lot of people asking how to install VST plugins into FL Studio so here’s a short guide showing you how to do it.
Fl Studio
First of all, you need to have a folder for all your VST plugins somewhere in your hard drive (default is under C:Program Files). If you dont have one, create it and name it to ‘VSTplugins’ for example.
Now, usually VST plugins (most of the free ones at least) comes either zipped (or rar packed) package of files (.DLL file(s)) which you have to unzip or unrar to your VSTplugins folder. You need a ZIP / RAR extractor such as 7-Zip or IZArc for this.
Unpack the whole content of that .zip or .rar file straight to your VSTplugins folder (or to your desktop and move/copy it to there).
If the plugin has its own installer (.exe file), follow the instructions given during the installation. Usually it asks the location of your VSTplugin folder.
Next, open the FL Studio and go to Options -> File Settings (or press F10) and under the ‘VST plugins extra search folder’, define your default VSTplugin folder (if you haven’t done so already). You only need to do this once and not everytime you install a new plugin.

After that, go to the Channels -> Add one -> More… and a box with a list of plugins will appear. At the Bottom of the box you’ll see a’Refresh’ button: click on it and choose ‘Fast scan (recommended)’ from the menu:
After scanning you should see your newly installed plugin in the plugin list (in red color):
That’s it!

Now you can double click it to open it and if you want, tick the little box (Favourite Switch) that is in front of the plugin to make it appear in your favourites list.

NOTE that if you installed an EFFECT plugin (not a synth which is a ‘generator’, but an effect – these are two different types of plugins), you can only open it to a Mixer tracks effect slot.
