How To Rescan FG-X 2 In Logic Pro

The video above walks through rescanning FG-X 2 (along with Fresh Air) in Logic Pro.

If FG-X 2 fails validation in Logic Pro, open the Plug-in Manager from the Settings menu (called Preferences in older versions of Logic Pro). Then, select Slate Digital in the Manufacturers section.

NOTE: Please ensure your FG-X 2 license is activated within the iLok License Manager app.

๐Ÿ”„ Next, select FG-X 2 in the plugin list (if other plugins also failed validation, hold the Command key (โŒ˜) and click each one to select them together). Once selected, click Reset & Rescan Selection and wait for the validation process to complete. This could take several minutes.

ย After validation completes, open FG-X 2 on a track to verify that it is working properly on your system.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Additional Troubleshooting

If FG-X 2 continues to fail validation:

  • Ensure the iLok License Manager app is up-to-date.
  • Try "synchronizing" your iLok dongle: right-click the iLok icon on the left side of the manager and select Synchronize.
  • Note: You must be signed into the manager to perform this action.

After synchronizing, try rescanning FG-X 2 in Logic Pro again.

TIP: If your FG-X 2 license is activated via Machine Activation (on your computer), try deactivating and reactivating it.

Please make sure Logic Pro is closed. Then:

  1. Open the iLok License Manager and ensure it is up-to-date.
  2. Click the Computer icon in the left column.
  3. Right-click your FG-X 2 license and choose Deactivate.

After deactivation, drag the license from the Available tab onto the Computer icon to reactivate it.

Once completed, reopen Logic Pro and rescan FG-X 2 in the Plug-in Manager again.

NOTE: If you can't find FG-X 2 in the Plug-in Manager, please verify it's installed by navigating to the /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ folder. If it's installed there, click Full Audio Unit Reset at the bottom of the Plug-in Manager. This resets and rescans all of your Audio Unit plugins the next time Logic Pro launches, so it may take some time to complete.
