Organizing VSTPlugins

[Joe Pishtey]

Hello

Using 3rd party plugins Cakewalk automatically puts them in a "Category" folder. Is there any way to create a folder say like "Favorites" and then have them located in that one folder?

If you right click on the plug-in(s), you can create your own categories (such as "Favorites") and assign them to that category. 

From Menu Bar > Help > Documentation > Search Tab > category (search term) > VST Configuration (Topic to display)

Plug-in Layout menu: The Plug-in Layout menu lets you specify how plug-ins are organized. The menu contains the following commands:

Manage Layouts: Opens Cakewalk Plug-in Manager, which lets you create, delete, and edit plug-in layouts. For more information about Cakewalk Plug-in Manager, see the Cakewalk Plug-in Manager online Help.

Sort by Category: The default layout, which organizes plug-ins into category subfolders such as EQ, Dynamics, Reverb, etc. If a plug-in has more than one category, it will be listed in each category subfolder. For information about assigning and creating categories, see To assign a plug-in to an existing category and To create a new custom plug-in category.
