However, when we implemented RTAS support years back, we have made a small implementation error, which causes different versions of the same plug-in to be incompatible: you can't swap a mono version for a stereo one and presets saved in one version can't be loaded in another.
Normally in Pro Tools, different versions of the same plug-in (AudioSuite, mono, stereo) can all load the same presets (saved via the PT plug-in menu), and are interchangeable (you can swap a stereo plug-in for a mono one, and it keeps its settings). To make it visible again in Finder, open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities) and enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library Note: Since OS X 10.7 (Lion), the user Library folder is marked as hidden by default. In the Sharing & Permissions section at the bottom, make sure you have 'Read & Write' permissions.Īfter you've corrected the permissions, open the plug-in again and choose Options > Restore Factory Presets again if needed. Open Finder and navigate to the /Users//Library/Audio folder, select the Presets folder and press Cmd+I. If this doesn't work, there is probably a permissions issue that prevents the plug-in from installing the factory presets.
If the plug-in has failed to do so, and you only see an empty preset menu, please check the following:įirst of all, open the plug-in in your DAW, click on the (empty) preset menu button and choose Options > Restore Factory Presets.
Normally, a FabFilter plug-in will install its factory presets automatically when you run it for the first time. To make them visible again in Finder, open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities/) and enter the following commands: Note: Since OS X 10.7 (Lion), the system and user Library folders are marked as hidden by default. Users//Library/Application Support/FabFilter/
Users//Library/Audio/Presets/FabFilter/FabFilter
Library/Application Support/Digidesign/Plug-Ins/įinally, if you also want to delete all data written by our plug-ins, you can remove the following folders as well: Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins/ To uninstall the plug-ins from a Mac, you can just delete the specific FabFilter plug-in files at the following locations: On Windows, you can simply uninstall plug-ins or bundles via the Control Panel.
