  SF 18 - Plug in chainer weirdness
  I am applying a plug-in chain, and the first 60 seconds of the file become blank (no signal) and then the signal picks up after. I've never had this issue before. Plugins involved are REQ 6 (Waves), LA-2A Silver comp (UA), Capitol Chambers (UA),

  RE: Sound Forge 18 do not load Waves plugins
  I did some more digging and reading into this... it seems perhaps it's not up to Magix to ensure that WAVES works? It seems that's in the hands of WAVES themselves? If that's the case, can Magix not have a chat with WAVES and get on their good side?

  RE: Waves L3 Multi- & Ultramaximizer V16 can't be added, but visible
  @NickHarvey That seems a bit odd. I thought ACID 9 supported VST3 plugins, and WaveShell 16 is only available as a VST3 - 64 bit plugin I understand (this loads all the Waves plugins in v16). I only have WaveShell1-VST3 16.0_x64.vst3 in the

  No Sound using Waves Plug In - Curves Equator
  Magix sound turns off when using Waves Curves Equator. It also loses presets that cannot be loaded. Waves Silk Vocals works, but loses settings even after saving to a template. Boo! - Frustrated since Magix started with the "bring your own plug in"

  Audio skipping and repeating. This problem has been happening on the past few versions of SF Pro. I'm currently working with Audio Studio 17 (17.0.2 Build 109), but it was the case with SF Pro 16 (16.1.4 Build 71). I have a RME Fireface UFX II.

  @NickHarvey You can start Acid while holding CTRL and SHIFT. This will show a small window which will allow you to reset the program settings to its default. Maybe this will reset the VST list and let you load the Waves plugins, but I'm not sure.
