I've just started trying the VST plugin in Camelot Pro and when I go to open an MGU file, I get a piop-up dialog asking to activate BiaB, but BiaB is already activated on this PC. If I say do, I get a [Demo] icon on the plug-in. That looks to me like a bug with either the plug-in or Camelot. I can't say which or a mea culpa at present. Edit: (Camelot is a live performance VST host and session manager from AudioModelling. *** Camelot Pro *** I don't know yet if it's even feasible to use the BiaB VST plug-in with it. It plugs OK, but I have yet to find a way to get audio or MIDI out of it.)

Does it sandbox VST Plugins ? Hmm ... it might; I'm not sure how I'd tell other than asking their support. There isn't a manual "because it's intuitive", which is a reasonable claim, but... Other plug-ins like Kontakt are OK, but undoubtedly they'll have tested that ... they may well not have tested the BiaB plug-in, nor may PGM have tested with Camelot.

Check the path for BB in the plugin, and make sure it is pointing to your 2025 install folder. Maybe it is pointing to an older version.

Mea Culpa. The plug-in was quite right.
I hadn't long upgraded to 2025 via the download manager and hadn't realised that that doesn't actually activate the licence. I guess that's reasonable as it doesn't know whether or not I want to activate on the machine in question.
I'm still not getting any output, but that's likely also a user error (I'm just starting with Camelot).
