VST plugins needed to be categorized by folder

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

It is so hard to categorize plugins in plugin manager if you have lots of plugins, I would love to see my VST plugins needed to be categorized by inner folder structure, That would save lots of time after you re-install os or plugins. I hope I will see this feature in next versions,

Greetings!

Thanks for now

Thanks for pointing out that we can create a hierarchical system of folders and sub-folders. If I used that before, I had forgotten and now that I have been adding plug-ins, it is a handy feature.

Category tags are VST3 feature. Most manufacturers provide category tags in their VST3 plug-ins although I end up overriding a few of them.

When VST3 support was added to SONAR X3, Cakewalk built a database of tags for VST2 plug-ins. My guess is they do not have the staff at this time to keep the database current.

I do all my initial category assignments in the Browser and use the plug-in manager to nest the folders. Hopefully nested folders will make it into the browser edit function sometime soon.
