Question

Would be very handy to be able to make collections or sets of plugins. Sorta like multiple Favourite folders.

Purpose: have a specialized number of plugins for different working scenarios - production, mixing, editing, etc., or just to sort all plugins in my preferred way

Cubase implemented it quite well. You can make separate collections for instruments and effects.

Another way to implement this could be presets in Plugin Manager, that would save the "hide/show" state of different plugins.

Answer 2

This collection thing in Cubase is interesting. I'm sure that is something that PreSonus could do even better.

I like the plug-in browser the way it is, but I agree that it would be very nice to have a better way to make different set-ups for different task. You usually don't need Auto-Tune or Melodyne when you're mastering, like you usually don't need the MIDI editor open when you're editing audio. Perhaps it could be solved with more tabs similar to the Vendor tab?

It would also be nice if the plug-in browser could allow copies of a plug-in to exist in other browser folders, f.i. if Slate VMR could exist in both the equalizer folder and in the compressor folder.
