Trouble with Studio One 6 on iMac macOS Ventura

Having trouble setting up interface with DAW.  Drone plug-ins are available in S1, I drop them on a track, but they don't appear in Synfire.  Am I missing something?  Do I need to do something with IAC setup?

Once a Drone is loaded by a DAW, it connects to Synfire (via LAN) and shows up on the sidebar under the "DAW Drones" folders.

IAC is needed only for MTC sync of the transports.

Considering other issues you mentioned, something seems to be different with your installation of Ventura (or the installation of Synfire).

I definitely don't have drones showing up on the sidebar  There is a category showing for them which appeared after I loaded them in the DAW, but nothing underneath (no little triangle to expand the category).  Is this perhaps a Pro feature?  I have Express.  I arrived at Express via upgrade from Sparks.

MIDI FX Drones are Pro, but audio Drones are available with Express.

Will check if that's possibly a bug where drones refuse to login with Synfire Express for some reason.

Thanks, I just upgraded to Pro.  I wanted the ryhythm controller and the articulation controls anyway, haven't had a chance to check to see if the drones show up now, but I'll let you know..
