VST plugins are third party plugins. Many commercial and free plugins are available in this format.

VST plugins can be loaded in an effect slot using the slot's down arrow. The VST plugins appear in the effect selector's 'VST Plugins' section (Windows) / 'VST and AU Plugins' section (Mac).

Download VST Plugins for Windows. In this page you can find many instruments, synths with ready presets and variety of effects to make quality music. Many free windows plugins. (FL Studio 20, Windows 7, 64 bit Pro) I recently downloaded an instrument Vst - Sonatina - it does not come with its own installer but it said to install it in my application's VST directory. Compatibility: Our virtual instruments are compatible with all VST and AU plugin host applications on 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows and macOS. Keep in mind that macOS Catalina is NOT supported at the moment. Installation: On Windows, extract the downloaded archive to your VST plugins folder (the one which is scanned by your DAW).

If a VST plugin gets in a bad state somehow you can press the F5 key (Windows) / Command-R (Mac) while the plugin interface is visible. This will save the settings, reload the plugin and load the settings again.

Note: a VST plugin that's installed while MultitrackStudio is running may not be recognised automatically (the plugins are collected only once per session). You can press the F5 key (Windows) / Command-R (Mac) while an effect selector is visible in order to force VST plugins to be rescanned.

Most VST plugins are VST2 plugins, some are VST3. MultitrackStudio supports both formats.

No Vst Plugins Folder

This plugin is free to use for commercial or non-commercial use, but is copyrighted and cannot be distributed without permission. Download & Installation Click 'Download', open the downloaded zip file and extract the dll file to your VST plugin folder (VSTNotepad32.dll if you use a 32-bit host, or VSTNotepad.dll if you use a 64-bit host). So first confirm you have installed the 64 bit or 32 bit version of the plugin into the C: Program Files Vstplugins folder or in the C: Program Files (x86) VstPlugins folder. Now, IF the VST manufacturer does not have a 64 bit version you will need to run the Studio One 32 bit version to use that plugin. As I am installing it in FL Studio, so I have selected VST(32-bit), VST(64-bit), and Serum Presets. If you use ProTools, then select others. Now, it will ask you the Installation Path for 32-bit and 64-bit Vst Plugins. Make sure 'Use VST Plug-In Custom Folder' is set to On. Make sure that the VST Plug-In Custom Folder is set to the same file path where you installed the Plug Ins, C: Program Files(x86) VSTPlugins or C: Program Files VST Plugins (depending on if you're using 32/64 bit versions).

Windows: VST2 plugins are .dll files. In the Plugin Manager a folder can be selected where the VST plugins are located. MultitrackStudio looks for VST plugins in this folder and its subfolders.
Mac: VST2 plugins are .vst files. They're located in the user or system Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST folder.

Plugins that do supply a graphical user interface will be shown in a window with Bypass and Presets buttons. Plugins that do not have their own user interface will be made to look like native MultitrackStudio effects.

Any presets coming with the plugin appear in the Presets menu. The presets can be factory presets (stored in the plugin itself), presets stored in .fxb bank files or presets stored in .fxp files. MultitrackStudio looks for matching .fxb/.fxp files in the folder where the plugin is located, and all of its subfolders.

There are a couple of 'powered' plugins on the market that come with their own dedicated hardware to run on. These kind of plugins are not supported.

Some plugins generate MIDI data. This MIDI output is merged with the data coming from MIDI input devices if the plugin is in a recording audio track and Soft Monitoring is enabled.

Bridging

Note: bridging is available for Windows only. The Mac version supports 64 bit plugins only.

Both 32 and 64 bit versions of MultitrackStudio support 32 and 64 bit VST plugins. 64 bit Windows is required to run 64 bit plugins.64 bit MultitrackStudio runs 32 bit plugins 'bridged', or 'out-of-process' in computer lingo. Similarly, 32 bit MultitrackStudio runs 64 plugins bridged. This happens automatically.

Bridging plugins has some drawbacks: there's some performance overhead, and you may hear glitches while recording them at low latencies. It's best to use mostly 64 bit plugins with the 64 bit version of MultitrackStudio.

Note: not all VST plugins are happy running bridged. Some seem to work fine running one instance, but weird things happen if you add more instances. Some copy protection mechanisms may fail. Some won't work if UAC (User Account Control) is enabled on Windows Vista and newer.

A bridged plugin that crashes shouldn't tear down MultitrackStudio. You can choose to run a buggy plugin bridged for this reason. https://yellowatomic304.weebly.com/blog/ifunbox-mac-download-105. The Plugin Manager can be used to force new instances of a plugin to run bridged. The window title bar of a bridged plugin reads 'VST plugin (bridged): name'.

Under the hood
Each bridged plugin appears in the Windows Task Manager as 'MtStudioVSTServer.exe' (32 bit plugin) / 'MtStudioVSTServer64.exe' (64 bit plugin).

Customizing the VST folder

On Windows the Plugin Manager allows for specifying one VST folder. On Mac there are two default VST folders, and you can specify an additional one in the Plugin Manager. If you need more flexibility you can place an MtStudioLinks.txt file in the VST folder, a folder that's included by an MtStudioLinks.txt file or any of the subfolders. MtStudioLinks.txt must be a plain text file. NotePad (Windows) / TextEdit (Mac) can be used to create/edit such files. Bit

This example file demonstrates the options:

Windows:
g:OtherFolder
g:OtherFolderTheReverb.dll
-SamplesDir
-BuggyPlugin.dll

Mac:
/Volumes/MyDrive/OtherFolder/
/Volumes/MyDrive/OtherFolder/TheReverb.vst
-SamplesDir/
-BuggyPlugin.vst

The first line includes the OtherFolder folder. The second line includes the TheReverb plugin. The third line excludes the SamplesDir subfolder, this can be useful if folders with huge amounts of samples slow down plugin scanning. The last line excludes the BuggyPlugin plugin.

Tip: you can press the F5 key (Windows) / Command-R (Mac) while an effect selector is visible in order to force VST plugins to be rescanned.

VST3 plugins

Windows: VST3 plugins are .vst3 files. 64 bit plugins are located in the C:Program FilesCommon FilesVST3 folder. 32 bit plugins are located in the C:Program FilesCommon FilesVST3 (if your Windows version is 32 bits), or the C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesVST3 folder (64 bits Windows version). There's no bridging for VST3 plugins, so 64 bits MultitrackStudio can only use 64 bits plugins and 32 bits MultitrackStudio can only use 32 bits plugins.

Mac: VST3 plugins are .vst3 files. They're located in the user or system Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST3 folder.

You can use MtStudioLinks.txt files to exclude files or folders (see the VST2 description). Including files or folders isn't possible.

Any presets coming with the plugin appear in the Presets menu. The presets can be stored in the plugin itself, or they can be .vstpreset files in one of these folders:

Windows:

  • C:UsersUSERNAMEDocumentsVST3 PresetsCOMPANYNAMEPLUGINNAME
  • C:UsersUSERNAMEAppDataRoamingVST3 PresetsCOMPANYNAMEPLUGINNAME
  • C:ProgramDataVST3 PresetsCOMPANYNAMEPLUGINNAME
64 Bit Vst Plugin Folder

Mac:

  • User or system Library/Audio/Presets/COMPANYNAME/PLUGINNAME/
  • Network/Library/Audio/Presets/COMPANYNAME/PLUGINNAME/

Vst Plugin Folder Windows 10

Issue

You can’t find the Equator VST or AU plugin inside a digital audio workstation (DAW).


Solution

After downloading Equator from My ROLI and then installing it, the Equator plugin is saved in the following locations:


Mac

  • VST Plug-in: Mac HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/
  • AU Plug-in: Mac HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/


Windows

  • VST Plug-in (32-bit): C:Program FilesCommon Files(x86)SteinbergVST2
  • VST Plug-in (64-bit): C:Program FilesCommon FilesSteinbergVST2

Ensuring your DAW is using the correct plug-in location

Some DAWs have different default locations to scan for plugins. If you have installed a plugin (like Equator) and can’t seem to access it from your DAW, check the DAW’s settings to ensure that it is looking in the right folder. In some DAWs you can set additional folders to scan automatically.


For example, in Ableton Live:

  • Go to Preferences > File Folder.
  • Select the button Use VST Plug-In Custom Folders
  • Click Browse by VST Plug-In Customer Folder
  • In the window that opens, navigate to the folder where your VST plugin is located:
    • C:Program FilesCommon FilesSteinbergVST2Equator for RISE x64.dll
  • Press Rescan to make Ableton find the VSTs in that folder and make them available in your project.
