Organizing plug-ins
Once you have more than a few plug-in effects and/or soft synths installed on your computer, you
might want to organize the way they appear in the various plug-in and synth menus that you use.
The Cakewalk Plug-in Manager is a powerful tool to organize your plug-in menus. Open the Plug-in
Manager by using the
Utilities > Cakewalk Plug-in Manager
command, and display the Plug-in
Manager’s help file by pressing F1.
Even if you don’t use the Plug-in Manager, SONAR now automatically organizes all DX and VST
plug-ins into a default plug-in menu layout called
Default – All Plug-ins
. If you select the
Plug-in
Layouts > Manage Layouts
option from a plug-in menu, the Plug-in Manager opens and
automatically populates the
Plug-in Layout
area with the
Default Layout
, which produces a solid
starting point for customizing layouts.
VST plug-ins are organized in menus according to the file folder structure in which they reside on
your hard disk.
VST configuration
SONAR automatically scans your VST folders for new plug-ins on startup, registering any
unscanned VST plug-ins so that they become available in SONAR’s plug-in menus. You can turn off
automatic scanning in
Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings
by clearing the
Scan For VST
Plug-ins On Startup
check box.
There are two places you can configure your VST plug-ins manually: go to
Edit > Preferences >
File - VST Settings
or use the Cakewalk Plug-in Manager (
Utilities > Cakewalk Plug-in Manager
).
You can use
Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings
to set general VST options, such as
choosing which folders to scan, but not specific options on individual plug-ins. Use the Cakewalk
Plug-in Manager to set options on individual plug-ins (use the
Utilities > Cakewalk Plug-in
Manager
command to open the Plug-in Manager). The following procedures explain how to use the
settings in
Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings
. The Cakewalk Plug-in Manager has its own
help.
To configure global VST settings
• Go to
Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings
.
To add a folder to scan

Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings

button to open the
Browser for Folder
dialog box.
3.
Choose the folder you want to add, and click
OK
.
4.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 to add any additional folders you might want to scan.
The new folders appear in the
VST Scan Folder(s)
list, along with any folders that were already in
the list.
