Topic: How do I find VST on mac OS ?

Hi All,

I would like to load instances of Pianoteq7 as VSTs within the program Max/MSP.

To do this I need to tell Max/MSP where the VST is located. I don't see any in the Pianoteq folder created during the installation.

Could anyone help?

Thank you.

DS

Hi,

You should find most VSTs in the following folders

  • VST2 - /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST

  • VST2 - User library - Rarely used: /Users/your username/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST    .vst

  • VST3 - /Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST3

  • VST3 - User library - Rarely used: /Users/your username/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/VST3    .vst3

Cheers
