Have you enabled use VST plugins in Live (Live prefs - file/folder) and do you know where VST plugins show in Live's browser? It runs fine on my Mac in Ableton 9 but with Windows 10? Originally I acquired OTT through Splice.

Hi everyone,
Am having trouble with VST. I read an article about the 5 best vsts out there (http://abletonlife.com/top-5-free-vst-p ... ac-edition). I'm a rookie so just wanted to try one out. I currently have Ableton Live, not Ableton suite and I'm using a mac.

Installing Vst In Ableton Mac Download

I download the file and go through all the motions (installing, agreeing to terms, saving on my hard drive etc)
This vst is now saved in my: library/audio/plug-ins/components
The file is called kingdubby.component
When I go back to Live I open up my preferences and go to the tab filefolder - plug-in sources and under this turn on the 'use vst plug-in custom folder' and browse to specify the folder (library/audio/plug-ins/components), I then rescan and click on the plug-in device browser symbol. Sadly kingdubby.component is not there. Installing Vst In Ableton Mac
