Hello friends, I have a suggestion because in my opinion, some things should be added to PatchWork to make it the plugin used :) I think the picture speaks for itself. I'll just add that the Plugin Browser can only scan the plugin names without trying to read if they're active and registered until an attempt is made to load them into a slot, to keep things running smoothly!

I've noticed that quite a few VST3 plugins don't read Presets and I'm asking for a fix for this, as well as for me to remember the selected skin size (at least Reaper6/ Win10) doesn't work for me! Thanks for robbing and sorry if there are already similar ideas, this is my reading of them ;)

Thank you for the suggestion. A plug-ins browser is indeed something we'd like to add. It would however require proper scanning of plug-ins. Just showing the plug-ins files would not add much value compared to the File Explorer (or Finder on Mac), as you can already drag and drop plug-in files directly from there.

Regarding skin zoom level, do you mean that when reloading a session Reaper does not remember the zoom level? That would be really odd as it is always saved in the plug-in state.

Thanks for the Drag&Drop functionality!
Speaking of Zoom, I mean there is no way to remember a default size valid for opening a new instance. That is, if I set it to 120%, every new subsequent instance can open at 120% and not at 100% and manually stretch it. Otherwise, in the project, the rallic instances with rallic sizes are saved and remembered in the project, yes :)
And if ever a browser is added for the presets it will be quite convenient!

Stay healthy and we expect you to please us with new updates :)

Saving the default zoom level for all new instances can be done with the user default preset, as explained here:

This is great with the size lock and saving in default preset, thanks a lot for the clarification!!!
At the risk of being annoying as hell, wouldn't it be great if we had a mix knob (right or left to the plugin name, fro example) on every plugin, besides the browser with presets :)

I wish you good health and fresh code for the joy of all of us!

An additional mix knob for every single plug-in would actually use too much memory (many customers use PatchWork as a channel strip on every single track).
