Hey there,

I recently installed Gatelab v1.0 from PluginBoutique. It worked for 5 minutes until I received an error from Presonus (which unfortunately I did not write down) when trying to change newly made presets.

I restarted Presonus, upon reopening the project, or creating a new project, the plugin will appear in the available list of plugins, but won’t appear or open when inserted on a track.

I uninstalled, I then downloaded the most recent version the Audiomodern website, v1.1.3, without any better results.

I was using the VST3 version.

The VST2 version does not show up at all when the plugin is scanned.

Any ideas?

Edit: Standalone will not open either. This is on Windows 11.

Was lucky enough to come across this post to revive Gatelab:

> Hello to all, for anyone having problems with Gatelab, please before trying to install or re-install version 1.1.2, first delete this file: Gatelab\_Presets in WIN: C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Audiomodern\Gatelab in MAC (this folder could be hidden): MACHD: \Users\userName\Library\Application\Support\Audiomodern\Gatelab to make the hidden files visible just press Command + Shift + . (period)

Although I lost my presets, it is now working again!

We’ve noticed some instability on certain operating systems between older and newer versions of the app. As a result, we’ve decided to rebuild the plugin from scratch. We aim to deliver a solid version by early 2025, addressing these issues while also introducing new features.
