Where are my plugins?

[Sid0]

I just upgraded from Pt8LE to PT 12. I can't seen to find the piano and other plug ins? Where are they? Do I need to install them, the same way I needed to install the MBox drivers? If so, where can I download them from?

Hi,

The PT 12 plugin folder should be in the following location :
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio\Plug-Ins



There is a separate download in your Avid account for the Virtual Instruments.
You need to download and install this if you already haven't done that.

You can find it under :
- My Products and Subscriptions
- Pro Tools | Software Upgrade with Annual Upgrade and Support Plan
- Product Details and Download Links
- AIR Instruments Bundle 12.0 Installer (Win) 1.25 GB

Bear in mind that all your PT8 plugins are RTAS, and PT 12 will only see 64-bit AAX plugins. So, if you're looking for your PT 8 plugins, you'll need to find their AAX equivalents.
