Where are my virtual instruments - pt2022.12

[jmaulz]

Hello! I'm using PT 2022.12, and the only instrument in my AudioSuite -Instrument folder is the SINE Player. Where can I find my other virtual instruments?
Thanks,
Mike.

What Ben said, but also why are you looking under Audiosuite for virtual instruments? Is there something specific you are after? Most virtual instruments are real time plugins, you could not say play live MIDI to Audiosuite so it makes little sense to use Audiosuite vs. real time plugins/inserts.

How to use VIs, the role of instrument tracks, etc. is covered in the Pro Tools Reference Guide.

Oh I see, Air Instruments, thanks!

AIR instruments are broken if you are running in BETA mode (Apple Silicon native) and even God does not know when that may be fixed...

I see now, "Instrument" in AudioSuite isn't the same as the "Instrument" insert.
Thanks,
