Here is what i do to install a VST and tell me if it’s wrong or not: Press the “p” button after opening the MMM software. Go to the “folders” tab. Below, there are two buttons, “add VST plug-ins path” and “reset VST plug-ins information”. Click the “add” button. I am missing all my vst plugins in studio one 4 professional now. This was ok a few days ago and nothing has changed. I logged on to the software today and the plugins are randomly missing now. I am able to see AU plugins and thats all. I have done all the updates and everything and it doesn't seem to fix the issue. Can someone please help me here? If you encounter issues where VST instruments are opening as a Sampler Channel and not responding to input they are probably missclassified as Effects plugins. The Channel Rack hosts Generator (instrument) plugins, to avoid these Generator plugins from opening as Effects in the Mixer you must do the following: Select ' Options Manage plugins '.

Audacity VST Enabler is a program that allows the VST plugins to work. Visual Studio Technology (VST), on the other hand, is a plug-in software that adds several effects in an audio recording and editing tool.

I managed to solve the issue by cutting + copying the VSTPlugins folder from C:/Program Files (x86) to C:/Program Files. For whatever reason they installed to the (x86) folder first and I figured I'd move the folder to the plain Program Files folder after you mentioned them being in the correct location and they popped up in the drop down, thanks for your help! VST plug-ins might stop working when the stand-alone application of the plug-in gets moved, renamed or uninstalled. It's recommended to always install the VST file directly to the correct destination folder, rather than manually moving the DLL file afterwards. Use Admin rights (Windows only).

It provides a variety of functionalities including virtual instrument sounds. However, VST enabler is no longer required for Audacity’s latest version. You can now download the VST plugins and directly add it to the Audacity audio recorder to enable the effects.

If you are using an older version of Audacity (e.g. v. 1.3), you might need to get the Audacity VST Enabler. But it has been removed in the Audacity’s official site since the release of the newer version. The only choice you can have is to update your Audacity and download the VST plugins.

To check the version of your Audacity, go to the Help menu and click About Audacity. Or, you can update it to the latest version by clicking the Check for Updates and it will redirect you to the download page. Please see the article on How to Use Audacity for a complete guide.
