    Today I opened Absynth and started going through the Browser to select patches but about half of them produce no sound. What could cause this and how do I fix it?

    Some examples of patches that are not working: Croid-Thunder (Absynth Legacy), Dark Celestians, Acid Rhubarb (Absynth 4), Bent Spector, Robots Rise (Absynth 5), etc.

    I have tried rebuilding the database to no effect.

    EDIT:

    I've made some very strange discoveries.. If I open for example FlangedTXoid, it will not play. If I turn off all three effects slots, then it will play. If I turn on either the thing in the Effect slot or the Filter slot, sound stops. However, I can get away with playing it for a short time but then the notes stop again even without enabling any of those slots again. This also doesn't work for all the affected patches.. some refuse to play even if I switch off all those bottom three slots.

    Other weird things: some patches I've found that a Filter set to any of the first three LP options will not pass any sound (even if the cutoff is set to max) but all the other filters work properly. However then other patches work fine with any of the filters.

    If I had to guess at this point it seems like maybe certain presets have become corrupted? This is exceedingly strange, because it seems like the program itself is just not working correctly, but the faults are not consistent.

    MORE:

    Sorry, I keep tacking onto this as I figure out more stuff. This is a big one: it works perfectly in Ableton Live but exhibits all the above behavior in Cubase...

    Weird. All the patches you have mentioned work perfectly over here.

    Maybe uninstall it completely then reinstall from scratch?

    I don't know where it is but in Cubase there are midi information that gets cached that can affect the sound given the velocity. I would try resetting those. Sorry I don't remember where they are at the moment. Hope that helps.

    I'm having the exact same issue -- and I'm using Ableton Live 10, so it's not just Cubase.

    dozens of Absynth patches load correctly, look fine, but make no sound whatsoever when I hit a key.

    other patches play normally.

    it's utterly bizarre.

    How do you even do this these days with Native Access? there's no uninstall options, and I'm not sure where all the relevant files are stored.

    Mine just sort of solved itself (I think a day after I originally made this thread), I believe either by restarting the computer or just the DAW, I am not sure which one did it. I think Absynth just gets confused sometimes. I wish I had a better answer for you and I hope it gets sorted out!

    Use your OS. In Windows (10) you check your settings, go to the 'app' section and then remove what you need to remove. To stay ontopic:

    If I had clicked the Absynth entry you see there I would be able to remove it.

    So: don't use Native Access, that's only useful to install stuff, removing is done using your OS.

    Hope this helps!
