asked Aug 22, 2020 in Studio One 5 by wesleybond (120 points)
Hi, so I moved all my plugins to a different drive on my pc and now projects that I have spent hours working on that used those plugins don’t work!

I get a missing devices message even though the plugins are showing up in new projects.

Is there a way to make Studio one point existing projects and tracks to the new plugin location?

Wesley,

My best guess would be that you never told Studio One where then new location is for your "VST Plug-Ins".

If that is the case, it is an easy fix:

1. Open any of your songs.
2. From the menu at the top, select "Studio One", followed by "Options".
3. From the items on the top, select "Locations" (probably the second from the left.)
4. From the next set of options that pop up, select "VST Plug-Ins" (probably on the far right.)

Now from this screen, you can see where Studio One thinks your plug-ins are located. If you don't see the location where you moved them, you can click "Add" (toward the lower-left of the window) to add the file path to the new location.

Let us know if that fixed your issue please.
