in Configuration of your Parallels Virtual Machine, on "Network" tab

 

seeing AMD cpu's are available that are like 40 x the speed of most computers, wouldnt it be better to just get a fast amd cpu system and be done with it?
i did the soundgrid thing for a while and it was messy.. i gave up

 

this is what i see ... what do i need to change ? thx

 

depends what you want,
for "offline" Audio Gridder or Vienna Ensemble Pro, you can pick "Source" as Host-Only - that way it won't get internet, but will get access from your Parallels Mac
for "online" Audio Gridder or Vienna Ensemble Pro, you can pick "Source" as Bridged Network: Ethernet - that way the virtual machine will have internet access as if it was a separate computer on your network

 

AMD processors are barely any faster, they just have more cores which is not what almost-realtime audio stack needs to provide low-latency crackle-free operation

 

that worked!!! thx a lot!!! there is only one thing... i cant get to view the actual plugin interface ... i can see the paramenters like slides, i can tweak them from logic but i dont see the plugin itself, not even in parallels.. what am i doing wrong ?
also what do i need to make it work with external old macs ? i have an old macmini, an old imac and a macpro 3,1 8core(from 2008)
this is what we use in the house for the internet ... am i able to connect the macs through this?
i guess first thing is a usb/ethernet converter for my macbook
thanks so much you ve been super helpful! so happy to have started this post!!!

 

this is very encouraging!

 

Hi -no im not talking about waves soundgridder—-im talking about audiogridder—-i have the audiogridder server and the audio gridder plugin both working on my music computer—-along with my plugins—using the ram from a lenove mini comp. connected with a network cable. Working in cubase pro v.11–this setup is one of two ways you can use the audiogridder—peace

 

do you have Parallels Tools installed in your Windows guest OS ?
I think AudioGridder captures frame of the plugin GUI, so it needs properly functional virtual machine for sure;
and about the question, AudioGridder plugin will "listen" to all running AudioGridder servers in your home/local network, so I don't see a reason your older Macs shouldn't work

 

what are the "parallels tools"? im running windows with Parallel desktop , all in my macbook pro - i think you got that .. but i dont knowa anything else ... sorry im no expert :/

 

read this: https://download.parallels.com/desktop/v14/docs/en_US/Parallels Desktop User's Guide/33569.htm
and install this: https://kb.parallels.com/115835

 

I dont need to click the ctrl+alt combination to exit the windows screen ... i think it says that means i have parallels tools alreqdy installed .....

 

Am i supposed to see the plugin gui in windows at all? When i open a plugin in logic i can on;y see the sliders - nothing happens in windows... is this ok? Thx

 

actually... just checked in the preferences and there was an install button in parallels toolbox window... ive installed that but its asking for a key ... can i find a keygen or similar anywhere in the sister sites ? do you know ? thx

 

Hi, could anybody please confirm ... in order to get this to work on a macbook internally you need Parallels and Parallels Toolbox ? ( this is to use windows plugins)
Anybody know where to find a key for it ?
thx

 

HI all, so ive managed to finally install Parallels toolbox! but still i cant get the GUI to work , i still see the controllers of the plugins like sliders and no graphic interface of the plugins whatsover ... any idea ? thanks!!! - btw im running 1.2.0 beta2 .. is that the right version ?

 

Hi all! I have installed the AudioGridder server in my Parallels Windows VM and the plugin in my Mac OS X Catalina, all is fine, except for the softube plugins, they are in the blacklist. I've tried to install Visual C++ and also uninstall the softube plugins, erase the AG server cache and cfg as well but they still in the blacklist, if anyone have a solution I will be very grateful...

 

Just to spread the word.
