GSnap now in Plugins, but Audacity ignores it

Post by BeatleManiac » Mon Dec 30, 2013 3:26 am

I placed the (32 bit) GSnap .dll file into Audacity's plugins folder; then re-started Audacity, multiple times, re-started my computer, re-downloaded GSnap and re-placed it into the plugins folder, re-started Audacity again --- and GSnap still does not appear in Audacity's effects list. Advice?

You have to tick this box in Audacity Preferences, (I have coloured yellow) ...
tick box I have coloured yellow, then close Audacity.gif
tick box I have coloured yellow, then close Audacity.gif (13.68 KiB) Viewed 3590 times
Then close all instances of Audacity, then when you re-start Audacity the VST effects will whiz before your eyes and GSnap should be included on the effects list.
