    I searched for this and didn't see anything but there is an organ I want to try (I'm comparing several at the moment), available on the sister site "USB Charlie The Retro Organ Module v1.0 VSTi". I know it's not new but I would like to check it out. This ISO install file is completely disorganized and if you read the pdfs they are referring to a Windows XP install. I copied the Charlie.dat and Charlie.dll both in and out of a "Charlie Folder" placing them in Programs Files/VSTPlugins and a few other locations. When I startup Studio One I see it scan Charlie, so it's seeing/scanning it but it's not showing up inside of Studio One. I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64

    Anyone?

    It's from 2004, so probably 32-bit, you will need a bridge to run this (something like JBridge)

    USB Charlie is one of my fav B3 sims. Yes, it needs to be bridged
    then works fine in S1. Here's a little tip. I jBridged the plugin version
    of Xlutop Chainer. You can then open Chainer in Studio One or any other
    64 bit host and load all 32 bit plugins into Chainer. That way you only have
    to bridge ONE plugin. Not only is this a LOT easier, but some plugins don't
    like to be bridged. This solves that problem too.

    I tested it and works under Win 10 x64 Ableton Live 10.
    You must use jBridger.
    0. First delete all what You done. All Charlie.dat and .dll copies from vst folders and leave only one.
    1. Move Charlie.dll and Charlie.dat into for example; C:\Charlie (You can name it and put what You want but You can't move it later)
    2. Create empty folder named for example "Charlie" inside your daw vst directory, example C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins\
    3. Run jBridger as admin. Choose 64-bit host. Then choose "Create bridging files inside a directory... HIGHLY recommended".
    4. Choose folder where You moved .dat and .dll for example mentioned C:\Charlie.
    5. Choose created earlier empty folder for example mentioned C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins\Charlie
    Now can popup activation of Charlie. Ignore it now. Close it.
    6. Open Your DAW and scan for vst plugins. Now open the Charlie plugin and use keygen for activation.
    It should works fine :wink:

    Thanks for the responses. I actually have changed what I'm doing and I'm working with VB3 II now and love it.
