Synthogy Ivory not showing up

Hi,

According to the Ivory manual, the Ivory plug-in should show up under Audio Units, but it doesn't.

Any help would be appreciated.

MacBookPro 2.14, Mac OS X (10.5)

well, this is a pretty cryptic post. what do you understand by 'under audiounits'? how did you install ivory? your plug-in should be installed into library/audio/plug-ins/components.

Sorry!

I installed Ivory 1.5, then the 1.63 updaters. There is a Library Tool, which I have run and it shows 'passed' for all installed library files.

In Logic, I insert a new Audio track, go to Mixer view, click an empty Insert button, select Audio Units at the bottom, and only get the standard Apple stuff - no Synthogy, as it says in the Synthogy Manual.

Obviously doing something wrong!

From Synthogy:

"Yes, Ivory will run in Logic 8 in Leopard with the compatible version
of the plug-in. We are still working on it but should have something
soon. Thanks for your continued patience."

"In Logic, I insert a new Audio track, go to Mixer view, click an empty Insert button"

I don't know about the Leopard compatibility, but this won't work in Tiger either. As Rohan points out, Ivory (or any instrument) would require a "software instrument" track, not an audio track. The plugin would have to be instantiated under "I/O," not an empty insert. If you look at the choices available as inserts, AU or otherwise, you'll see all your processing options - eq, reverb, amp modeling, etc., but no instruments.
