Trouble Finding Plugins / Library-preferences-avid folder non existent
Hello,
I am unable to locate a bunch of plugins I previously used in protools in the software and I am unable to get a new plugin I have downloaded to be recognized (fb3300). I can see various plugins when I go to the library - audio - plugins menu. I have various AU and VST plugins, the latter which I believe do not work with protools. In trying to solve the issue, the main suggestion I have found is to delete protools preferences from library>preferences>avid, but when I navigate there, there is no avid data or folder under preferences. Any suggestions for how I should go about trying to solve this issue? Thanks, Mike |

That said: #1 Pro Tools cannot use VST or AU format plugins newer versions use AAX older versions use RTAS The preference file location is also specific to PT and OS version Here is a page from sweetwater on trashing preferences https://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare...s-preferences/

I experienced the same issue. The only thing in my Avid folder was my Eleven Rack. See if you have a digidesign folder. I do, and I was able to trash ProTools from there. Not sure what version of PT you have but I have ProTools 9MP. Hope this helps.

You can use my app Trasher in my signature. Both Mac and PC versions. It can automatically delete specific files, open folders, among other things.
