You may want to check the location where plug-ins are getting installed, either in your user Library folder or the central Library folder on your MacintoshHD - look at these folders:

  • ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins 
  • /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins 


To open one of these folders quickly, enter the keyboard shortcut ⇧⌘G , then enter paste one of the paths "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins" or "~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins" into the field for the folder name.


Are there any component or VST plug-ins in the Plug-ins folders? Or folders installed by third-party apps?
