plugins missing in DP9

Post by nickysnd »

I have just installed DP9 and most of my (third party) plugins are missing. I trashed the audio units info cache file but at reopenning DP9 didn't rescan the plugins. Then I opened DP7 and it did the scanning. Maybe the cache file for DP9 is located in a different place?

Are they 32-bit plug-ins?

How do I check that? But they probably are, so then what?

I actually don't know how to check exactly (since I don't have any anymore), but if they are, you need to use an adapter like jBridge or 32-lives.

Hopefully someone else chimes in with better info. I suspect this is your issue.

Or run DP 9 in 32 bit mode.
