Default Re: Missing presets for some of my air instruments in pt 11

Quote:
Within "Plug-in Settings" there is another folder called "Plug-in Settings", and so on. The same folder structure goes on forever, like two mirrors facing each other.
Here's what I would do...
  1. Go to your Documents folder and navigate to the Pro Tools folder at Macintosh HD/Users/you/Documents/Pro Tools/
  2. Move the entire folder named "Plug-In Settings" to your desktop
  3. Run the AIR Creative Collection 11.1 Installer
  4. Install the Pro Tools 11.2.1 version released today
  5. Restart
  6. Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility
  7. Select Macintosh HD and Repair Disk Permissions
  8. Launch Pro Tools and let it automatically update the core plug-ins and rebuild the plug-in database (this will take a few minutes the first time, but Pro Tools will open faster on subsequent launches)
  9. Quit Pro Tools
  10. One at a time, move the presets from the presets folder you moved to the desktop back to the Documents/Pro Tools/Plug-In Settings folder.
Check carefully when you are moving the individual plug-in presets folders back to the root folder that there are no embedded "Plug-In Settings" folders inside of those individual plug-in settings folders. For example, you should have an individual plug-in folder hierarchy like this:
/Documents/Pro Tools/Plug-In Settings/AIR Chorus

For any third party plug-ins that don't show any settings after you have done all this, you should run the latest installer for those plug-ins. You can find links to many of these here:
