mmkm Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Hello, I have just got a new machine and I'm trying to install my old plugins and going through the ballache of licenses/reinstallation etc. I have tried to install Soundtoys Decapitator and AudioThing's Reels, as well as a few other plugins. In the plugin manager it says they have all been successfully validated, but they aren't appearing in my AU Instrument folder. I had to uninstall loads of iZotope software that wasn't loading properly either, as well as some other Soundtoys plugins. It seems like every new plugin I try to install is not being implemented properly. The component is there as well. I'm on a 2023 Mac Studio/M2 Max/Ventura 13.5 Grateful for any help, thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's normal behaviour - the two plugins you specify are audio effects, not audio instruments. They will only appear in the audio effects plugin menus, not the instrument plugin menus. Double-check you're looking in the correct plugin menus for the expected plugins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmkm Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 Jesus wept of course it is. I've been here doing full audio unit resets and deleting caches for ages and I've just been looking in the wrong folder. I've been clicking on the instrument section expecting FX to show up. Amazing. Thank you, I need to lie down now... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
