jono grant 46 Posted September 15, 2021 After recent cakewalk update, when I go to insert a plugin, the list is all weird looking, the menus aren't defined and it was redesigned poorly. Is this being corrected on a new update perhaps? Annoying change... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Chase 2 Posted September 15, 2021 I agree that the old look was better. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will. 472 Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) It looks fine here. Whats your definition of weird looking in this scenario? Edited September 15, 2021 by Will_Kaydo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this being corrected on a new update perhaps? Annoying change... I'm afraid this IS the update. You can always use the faster/easier method of inserting plugins using the Browser as I tried to explain previously - see thread below You can have the browser docked either side or floating so when you hit B it pops up ( i..e mid screen ) and you can quickly browse-search-drag-drop The old right click insert method goes way back to when most of us only had few plugins and is a bit unwieldy now people have hundreds and the Browser is a more elegant solution.

jono grant 46 Posted September 19, 2021 What I mean is that when you expand a manufacturers plug list, it gets all melted in with the other manufacturer entries. Here's a picture (below) *Shown here, the Antares menu is expanded, but the plug list look like they're part of the continued list on the right. They used to have graphic separators for each plug. It looks like a graphics glitch in the update is what I mean. It's confusing. Is no one seeing this? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's a picture (below) Is no one seeing this? I used to have this problem, but now there is a border around the expanded box. Not sure if that was a change to an Early Release or the last official release. It was added recently. What version are you using? EDIT: Yes, @Starship Krupa--that's the border that was added either the last general release or beginning with one of the 2021.09 Early Access releases. Thanks for posting the image before I had a chance to grab it. UPDATE: @jono grantMy comment on the addition of the border was based on 2021.09 EA build 099. It is also there in the current EA build.

I don't usually use the by Manufacturer layout as I prefer my own custom Categories but I just tried it by Manufacturer and it's fine here. I don't have any Antares plugins though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have any Antares plugins though. I use my own custom made layouts made in Plug-in Manager too - one list for VST and other for VSTi. I group them by manufacturer and include only VST3 versions if available. Then its very fast to use those lists in right-click menu too. I dont know if this helps, just my experience.

User 905133 1,018 Posted September 22, 2021 @jono grant Not sure if you were waiting for the non-Early Access release of 2021.09 to get the version of the VST list with the border, but its available now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
