Workaround for 4ch and mono plugins

[rods]

Hi, maybe this was already mentioned before, I couldn´t find any information about it here.

I think I've found a workaround for those plugins that have 4 input channels and also for those that we wold like to be mono.

I was trying to use Klanghelm DC8C2 and VUMTSolo.
I'm using windows 7: inside "Users/.../AppData/Local/Mixbus/fst_cache" are some ".FSI" files that have specific information about each plugin available inside Mixbus. In the fifth an sixth rows we have 2 numbers that I think are the number of input and output channels of the related plugin. I changed those from "4" to "2" (fifth row) in DC8C2 and after that I was able to open it in stereo tracks in Mixbus.
In VUMTSolo I changed the input and output numbers to 1 and was able to open it in a mono track.

I'm testing other plugins and also the satbility of Mixbus with these changes.

Hi Rods, greater discovery than a new galaxy!
I used wordpad to open and edit but can be better one. What do you use?
Thanks

Thanks,
I collected the original and edited .fsi files in a pendrive in two folders in case these plugins have to be reinstalled, not working that way, or plugs are rescanned in Mixbus, so I can avoid editing them again, just drag and drop
Take care: check panning with input-edited plugs because they may tend to be one-sided!
