This means you can correct any issues later, rather than hit a speed bump in the creative process. If there's a problem with a plug-in, Cakewalk carries on regardless of the scan's status. The 'Scan in Sandbox' option slows scanning somewhat, but isolates the scanning process. However, this won't make the program load any faster, and you'll have to remember to scan after installing or removing a plug-in. If you don't want to see the scanning notification that starts when you open the program, choose Manual Scan. VST3 plug-ins have a nominal standard home, which is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3.įor scan options, 'Automatic Background Scan' is unobtrusive, doesn't add any time to program startup, and ensures Cakewalk won't miss a new plug-in you've installed - even if you install it while Cakewalk is open. These plug-ins may seem to be missing until you include their host folders. Most VST2 plug-ins ask where you want them installed (I created a folder at C:\Program Files\VSTplugins, and install my VST2 plug-ins there for convenience), but some companies place them in arbitrary folders, often C:\Program Files\Steinberg\VSTplugins. Make sure all folders containing VST plug-ins are included in the Scan Paths section. Start in the VST Settings section under Edit / Preferences. Fortunately, Cakewalk by BandLab has several plug‑in‑related tools that can help smooth your workflow. Plug-ins are addictive - and as they accumulate, the need to manage them increases. Preferences is the main location for editing global plug-in characteristics, including locations and scanning.
