Hi! Come Introduce Yourself!

Aida-x: click on the little gear (top right corner) to open the parameters editor and load a model.

Nam: same thing. The nam plugin might be outdated in mod desktop, so new “A2” Nam models won’t load. Add a Cabinet IR loader after Aida-x or Nam.

Make sure to post in the right category if you need help on a specific feature.

There’s no apparent way to change the model in the parameters editor. It just shows the path to a clean sound that seems to be default. There are more sounds in the folder, but there’s no option to change it. No pull down menu, no arrows to scroll, clicking anywhere in that box with the model showing just selects it as text. I tried to delete the default sound so it might load the next one in the folder, but then there’s no sound at all.

I’ll check if I had nam 1 models there, the ones I tried were probably V2…they loaded with no errors but didn’t do anything for the sound.

hey @Antti_Heikkinen, first of all welcome to the MOD Community.

About loading models to AIDA, have you tried on the first small Window for the MOD Desktop (where you have the “Start” and “Stop” buttons) to click on the “Open User Files” button? There you have a folder called “AIDA DSP Models”, you should load your AIDA models inside that folder.
If then you can’t still see the files on the MOD WebGUI try to re-load the AIDA-X plugin. If you can’t still see the models, go back to the first window, click on “Stop” and the “Start” again and re-open the MOD WebGUI. The models should be then there.

Thanks,

Yeah the issue is apparently that the models that came with the system are in a different place, under Program Files… And it only shows the first one and the address to the folder in AIDA, and not the others.

But, if I copy some models to the user folder manually, then I can see them in AIDA. So it just points to the wrong folder by default is all, causing all the confusion.

And with the NAM models it was the case of having to find NAM1 models to get sound out.

So it’s all now sorted :slight_smile:

I’m not sure if I fully got it. It’s normal (and expected) that the default or factory models are not accessible. Anyway, the plugin should also check the “AIDA DSP Models” folder. Are you saying that it doesn’t?

It only shows the single default model, although there are several in the folder. But it works fine when you add new models in the user folder. I don’t think I even tried to copy new models into the program files folder it seems, because it seemed not to use them anyhow/would show only one of many in the folder. Confusing :slight_smile: but it’s fine now.

Could someone please tell me how I do a post on the forum as I need help installing the Mod Desktop.

Hi Clive,

You made it over to the forums. :smiley:

What issues came up with the install? Windows, yes? I don’t remember offhand having to do anything but run the installer for Windows. Though I wonder if there are any prerequisities that I already had like ASIO drivers for my interface, etc.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your response.

I have downloaded the Software but cannot install it into my DAW (Mixcraft 10 Pro Studio).

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards/Clive

Oh, you won’t be able to. The MOD Desktop is a sort of standalone effects unit/instrument, so to speak.

Try the VST version of that plugin I made instead as far as your DAW is concerned.

I mean, maybe there is a way to run all of MOD Desktop inside a DAW. That would be pretty sweet but I’ve not seen such a thing.

Thanks for your advice Jim :+1:

I forgot about your VST version Jim, but for some reason l can’t find it mate.

Could l please trouble you to send it again.

Sorry to bother you with this my friend.

Link in email but might as well put it here just in case!

I bumped up your permissions. You should be able to post new topics now.

Thanks Jim, l appreciate that :+1:

Hello @clivea,

First of all welcome in the MOD Forum. I’m glad with your interest on the MOD platform.

I took a look at your trust levels and I believe that you are already able to create a post. Let me know if that’s not the case and I will manually fix it for you.

Still not. That is planned, but as MOD Desktop is still in an alpha/beta stage, that functionality was not yet implemented.
