I tried installing Blue Cat Stereo Chorus. I believe I put it in the correct folder. I checked the box to have Audacity check for new VST plug ins, I restarted Audacity. Am I supposed to see the Blue Cat name in the list of effects now? I dont think its there. Any help would be great.

Audacity 1.3.x is now obsolete. Please use the current Audacity 2.1.x version.
The final version of Audacity for Windows 98/ME is the legacy 2.0.0 version.

Re: Plug ins
If it is installed correctly AND if it is supported by Audacity AND you have VST support enabled, then yes you should see it listed.danartdis wrote:Am I supposed to see the Blue Cat name in the list of effects now?
It is sometimes necessary to place the .dll files for the effect into the Audacity Plug-in folder for Audacity to pick it up.
To enable VST effects in Audacity, the option must be selected in "Edit menu > Preferences > Effects".
Audacity must be restarted (with "Rescan" enabled) before the effect will appear.
Audacity does not support all VST effects and does not support any VSTi (VST Instruments). I don't know if "Blue Cat Stereo Chorus" is supported or not.
More information about VST effects in Audacity here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/VST_Plug-ins
(For Audacity 1.3.12 you should not install the "VST Bridge" plug-in.)
