Sunset Studio Reverb and T Racks 5 Questions [Resolved]

[jmartinez990]

Hi everyone! I am a new customer for IK Multimedia who just bought the Sunset Studio Reverb plugin by itself a couple of days ago. I was wondering if there was any way I could only install the Sunset Studio Reverb by itself without having every other T-Racks plugin appear in my DAW. I would hate to not use it and uninstall T Racks and the Sunset Studio Plugin from my computer because I already have a lot of plugins and have other T Racks plugins appear in my plugin lists is hindering my workflow. I wanted to buy T-Racks 5 Max because they're selling it for a low price, but if this is an issue I think I'll have to refrain from using T-Racks and Sunset Studio Reverb.

I tried looking to youtube and google all over to see if there was a solution but there wasn't any, I have a Mac and tried to get rid of files and other traces of the other plugins and they still appeared, so I decided to just uninstall all of them. Until I find a solution to this issue I'll just refrain from using them which is a shame because I was really liking what IK Multimedia has to offer.

Thank you for your help!

There is a single TR5 installer and it installs everything.

In some DAWs you can hide specific plug-ins. Or, I believe, some users have moved the (VST) plug-in files out of the folders scanned by the DAW.

But, if you get TR5 MAX you will have nearly all of the gear models anyway.

You can change it here.

Thank you for your reply! And for the additional advice on the username!

I use Pro Tools, is there any chance you'd know how to hide the plugins on Pro tools or how to hide the VST plugin files for Pro Tools? If not is there anywhere you could refer me to that has steps to do this? Thank you for your incredibly helpful reply!

Sorry, never used it. maybe a Pro Tools user will chip in.

Googling "Pro Tools hide plug-ins" seems to suggest moving them to some "Unused" folder. Proceed at your own risk.

Thank you! It's a risk I'll have to try! Update to come!

Once again thank you for your help!

It worked! Hopefully, any others having this problem can see this, and hopefully, it helps them out!! This is for Pro Tools on Mac!

Steps:

All I did was go to Finder, then on the icon with the house where it says your username, right-click and press "Show in enclosing folder", then when it says users on the top bar do the same thing "show in enclosing folder", then click LIbrary, then Application support, Avid, Audio, and there should be 2 plug in folders, on labeled "Plug-Ins" and one labeled "Plug-INs (Unused)".

Go into Plugins and Highlight all the plug-ins you don't want to show up in pro tools. I personally dragged them to the desktop and then went into the plugins unused folder where I re-dragged them from the desktop into the unused folder. This fixes the problem!

I assume for anyone who buys one of the plugins you moved into the unsued folder will have to move it back into the Plugin folder where it originally was, but I'll test it and let you know!

Also for anyone that finds my steps hard to follow, here is what I followed on google!

Where are Pro Tools plugins stored on Mac?

To find where your Pro Tools plugins are stored for macOS, follow the steps below.
Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Avid > Audio > Plug-Ins (AAX)

There was also this in the instructions but it didn't apply to the solution, not sure why it was included but here it is in case it helps anyone!

Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Digidesign > Plug-Ins (RTAS & TDM)

Once again thank you for your help and hope this helps everyone that has been having a hard time with this!

Good oh!

Thank you for posting what worked for you; that will certainly point others in the right direction. At their own risk, of course.

PS When you update TR5 , you'll need to do it again.
