Samet 3 Posted September 23, 2019 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 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ralf 1 Posted October 15, 2019 I think that the manufacturer is responsible for whether his plug-in has this information implied. With some plug-ins the recognition in CW works very well. Ralf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
User 905133 1,619 Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) 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.

scook 4,774 Posted October 15, 2019 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. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
