MOPHO PLUGSE SUPPORT PAGES

The PlugSE VST dll file should be placed in the VST plugins folder. Depending on the VST host that folder could be located in various places on you hard drive. In case of Steinberg’s Cubase this folder is located in the Cubase directory and it is called “Vstplugins”. In Ableton Live the Vst folder can be selected and defined in Preferences.

The PlugSE is designed to serve as a bridge between the host and the Mopho and in principle the Mopho should be connected directly to the PlugSE via MIDI. By default, most of the VST hosts are set to grab all MIDI ports on startup and this may create a connection problem for PlugSE users.

Many MIDI interfaces are not multi-client - this means that ports can be opened and used only by one application at a time. It also means that in practice, after you start the host application the host may first access and open MIDI ports that your Mopho is connected to and prevent the PlugSE from accessing the same ports later on.  

Even if your MIDI interface is multi-client and it is connected to the Mopho it is still advisable to deactivate MIDI ports the Mopho is using in the host MIDI setup in order to avoid double MIDI messages being send or received. The PlugSE will handle all MIDI messaging and the connection between the Mopho MIDI and the host is not needed.
