Plug Ins Not Appearing In List

Post by Retconaddict » Thu Mar 11, 2010 9:34 pm

Hello, whenever I put a new plug in into the folder 'C/ProgramFiles/Audacity1.3/PlugIn', it doesn't show up when I next open audacity.


Could someone help me with my problem please?

Thank you.

Rian

There's a couple of possible reasons:
1) it is not a supported plug-in
2) It is a VST effect and you need to "refresh" the list of VST plug-ins.

To refresh the VST effects list, go to "Edit menu > Preferences > Effects" and select "Rescan VST..." then restart Audacity.
