Windows – Moving a VST plug-in file to another folder

On windows, FLUX:: Center offers the options to customize the plugins install path (depending on the plugin format) If you for some reason change the installation path, make sure you point the installer to a VST plug-in folder that is scanned by your DAW software or else your DAW won’t find the plug-ins.

If for some reason you want to move your VST plug-in files to another location in your file system after they’re installed, do NOT try moving the files manually in the file system, as this will cause inconsistent behaviors as the plug-ins then may not find the resource files they need in order to work correctly. Instead uninstall the plug-ins you want to move, change the plug-in path in Flux:: Center preferences, then re-install them.

Should the case be that you’ve already moved your plug-in .dll files manually, you will experience problems with your VST plug-ins. (plugin crash, or black/white GUI, etc…) To resolve this, open FLUX:: Center, uninstall the plug-ins, remove any files that were moved manually and hence not removed in the uninstallation, change the plug-in path in FLUX:: Center preferences, then re-install them.

When running a DAW software using the VST version of the Flux:: plugins (Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar etc.), and the plugins can’t be found find in the DAW after the installation, there may be a problem with the plug-in scanning in the DAW after installing the plug-ins.

Please follow these steps to perform a plug-in re-scan:

  • Open Preferences/Settings in the DAW software and locate the list of Folders and Paths where the DAW is scanning for VST plug-ins. Please consult the user manual of your DAW for the exact location of this setting.
  • In the settings window, add the locations below as VST plugin file locations to scan:
    • Windows 64-Bit, VST 64-Bit:
      C:\Program Files\Vstplugins\Flux
    • Windows 64-Bit, VST 32-Bit:
      C:\Program Files (x86)\Vstplugins\Flux
    • Windows 32-Bit, VST 32-Bit:
      C:\Program Files\Vstplugins\Flux
    • Mac OS X:
      /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Flux
  • After adding these locations, consult the user manual to find out the procedure for a plug-in rescan in the DAW, and perform a re-scan.

Now the installed plugins should be available in the plugin list in the DAW.

If, in Windows, when using the Windows VST versions of Flux:: plug-ins (Cubase, Nuendo, Sonar etc.) you experience problems with white/blank and other strange looking GUIs. Missing text, strange fonts or any other GUI problems, a common problem is that the plug-in .dll files have been moved manually from the original VST-folder used in the plug-in installation.

If this is the case, you have to uninstall the plug-ins, remove any files that were moved manually and hence not removed in the uninstallation, and finally re-install the plug-ins and instead change the plug-in path during the installation.

All Flux:: plugins can be setup for batch processing using MrsWatson, a command-line audio plugin host supporting VST 2.x plugins.

  • First you need to create a user preset in the Flux:: plug-in preset manager (not the host preset manager) that you want to use for the batch processing, this can be done using your favorite audio host software.

  • In the Flux:: plug-in preset manager (not the host preset manager), navigate to the User preset tab, select the preset, then click “Set as default”.

  • Then close your audio host application.

How to setup a proper command line:

1 – Enter the mrswatson64 application path.
You can drag the application directly into the command or terminal window (then you don’t have to type the path manually).

Exemple in Windows:
     C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\MrsWatson\MrsWatson-0.9.7\Windows\mrswatson64.exe

Exemple in macOS:

     /Users/myusername/Desktop/MrsWatson-0.9.7Mac\ OS\ X/mrswatson64

2 – Indicate the Flux VST 64-bit install path

Exemple in Windows:

–plugin-root “c:\Program Files\Vstplugins\Flux\LevelMagic.vst\Contents\x64”

Exemple in macOS:

–plugin-root /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Flux

3 – Indicate the input file path for the file you want to process.

Exemple in Windows:

-i C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\myaudiofile.wav

Exemple in macOS:

-i /Users/myusername/Desktop/myaudiofile.wav

4 – Indicate the output file path for the processed file.

Exemple in Windows:

-o C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\out.wav

Exemple in macOS:

-o /Users/myusername/Desktop/out.wav

5 – Indicate the plugin(s) to be used.

Exemple in Windows:

-p LevelMagic

Exemple in macOS:

-p LevelMagic-x64

6 – In the end, the full command line will look like this:

Exemple in Windows :

C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\MrsWatson\MrsWatson-0.9.7\Windows\mrswatson64.exe –plugin-root “c:\Program Files\Vstplugins\Flux\LevelMagic.vst\Contents\x64” -i C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\myaudiofile.wav -o C:\Users\myusername\Desktop\out.wav -p LevelMagic

Exemple in macOS:

/Users/myusername/Desktop/MrsWatson-0.9.7Mac\ OS\ X/mrswatson64 –plugin-root /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST/Flux -i /Users/myusername/Desktop/myaudiofile.wav -o /Users/myusername/Desktop/out.wav -p LevelMagic-x64

7 – Type return key and wait for the processing to end.
