Go to the settings page and the plugins tab. Make sure that the directory where you put the dlls is shown there. If not, add it. Then click rescan plugins and yr golden. Dunno about the Mackie plugs cuz I'm a DL-boy.

Have you scanned the directories to add them to Tracktions registered list of plugins? Just because they are in a directory does not mean that Tracktion has registered the existence of the .dll

This is true for any host software.

Sorry, you beat me to it - I opened the thread and read something else, then responded.

I put the plugs in T's plugin folder & have scanned already.That doesn't seem to work.

Well, can't seem to help. Sorry.

They really MUST appear if they're in one of Tracktion's plug-in paths and you've scanned. If they're bad plug-ins (ie. DirectX or otherwise just dodgy), they'll appear in that currently-empty box for your plugins in the settings page (the ignore list).

If they don't appear in T, and they don't appear on that dodgy list then either:

a) you've installed them incorrectly
b) you've moved files that you thought were plug-ins, but which actually are not
c) they're there, in a sub-menu or something, and you just didn't see them.

I'm going with "C". ;)

Do you have another host software, you can point to the plugin folder?

Regrading the Mackie plugins: are you sure the parameters aren't saved when you save an edit? Ignore the displayed preset name and check the knobs & faders themselves.

also, tell us which plugins they are, just in case that flags up some other really simple errors
Kick, punch, it's all in the mind.
