Guys,
As a total newbie to Mixcraft 8 I watched all the videos on the official channel and I have learned a lot how to use the program but there is one thing that I am not sure about at present.
How do you scan your plugins in Mixcraft? What folder does your plug ins reside in?![How to find plugins on my computer How to find plugins on my computer](https://support.presonus.com/hc/article_attachments/360041405091/MacOS.jpg)
I have Sonar X3 in my system and the plug ins for that reside in a folder called Cakewalk/Vst/Plugins. Something like that.
Sonar automatically creates this folder when you install it. You don't have to use it of course but I do. All your plugins reside in that folder unless you chose to assign them to another folder.
I have Mixcraft 64 bit and 32 bit installed on my Laptop. Mixcraft is letting me use some of my cakewalk plug ins in mixcraft. It seems to be letting me use 32 bit Cakewalk plug ins in Mixcraft 32 bit and some other 64 bit plugins I have such as Addictive Drums in Mixcraft 64 bit.

How To Install Illustrator Plugins
Inside Preferences, the next step is to find your VST plugin folder selection. It's here you tell Ableton Live where it finds your plugins. In Live 10: Click Plug-Ins on the left side of the preferences window. Make sure both 'Use VST2 Plug-In Custom Folder' and 'Use VST3 Plug-In Custom Folder' is set to 'On.' 32-bit plug-ins on 64-bit Windows: C: Program Files (x86) Common Files VST2. Any other folder your VST host application is scanning during startup by default is also suitable. But, to keep plug-in installations independent from a specific VST host release, never install plug-ins into the program folder of the VST host application or any other.
