Audacity VST bridge help (updating)

Post by justinrpg » Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:34 am

I have had the Audacity bridge for about 4 or 5 months... when I first installed the VST bridge, the only VST I had at the time was, AutoTune... since then I downloaded more... but Audacity still only registers AutoTune... none of the others show up... how do I update the VST bridge or Audacity or whatever to include these VSTs?

Versions of Audacity from 1.3.8 onwards do not use Audacity Bridge. When you want to add a VST effect in 1.3.8 and later, you have to click Edit > Preferences, choose "Effects" on the left, put a check mark in "Rescan VST effects", click OK, then exit Audacity and restart it.

Audacity does not recognise VST instruments or 64-bit VST plug-ins.
