How do I set the path to my Toontrack plug-in in Studio One (on Windows)?

Note that the VST3-versions of our plug-ins that have VST3 support are always installed in the default location and shouldn’t be moved from:

  • C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 

Solution:
After installing a Toontrack plug-in you will need to let Studio One know where the new VST plug-in is installed. Depending on your operating system and the bitness of the plug-in, the location can be slightly different.

  • The default install path for a Toontrack VST plug-in on 32-bit Windows is:
    C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Toontrack
  • The default install path of the 32-bit VST plug-in on 64-bit Windows is:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\VstPlugins\Toontrack
  • Finally, the default install path of the 64-bit plug-in on 64-bit Windows is:
    C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Toontrack

Please note that if you choose a custom path for installation, the above paths will not apply. They may also differ in some instances, should the installer be able to probe your system for a pre-existing VST repository.

Tip: If you didn’t make a note of the VST install path during the installation, there is a way to find out where the plug-in was installed, in case the product comes with a standalone application: Launch the standalone, open its Help menu and choose Show Plug-In Path. The path displayed (minus the last part, the dll name) is the path that your host application (Studio One) will need to know about.

As stated earlier, once the plug-in has been installed, it will be necessary to ensure your host recognizes the installation path, should it not appear listed among your VST plug-ins already.

To set the path to the plug-in file in Studio One:

  1. Open the Studio One menu option at the top of the Studio One window.
  2. Click Options > Locations.
  3. Click Add in the Locations section of this window, and navigate to the location where the plug-in file is located on your hard drive (default paths previously listed).
  4. When you hit Apply, Studio One will scan the folder you just added.

You will now be able to launch your Toontrack plug-in in Studio One.
