Manual installation

When installing FabFilter Pro-C, the installation program will try to copy the plugin into the common VST plugins folder (Windows) or the /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components or VST folder (Mac OS X) on your computer. In most cases, your favorite host will then find the plug-in right away.

On OS X, this is the only possible location for a Audio Units plug-in (although you can install them in the user Library folders under ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins as well).

On Windows though, most hosts have their own VST plug-ins folder. So if you are using Windows and your host does not recognize FabFilter Pro-C, you need to locate the proper plug-ins folder for your host first (it is usually shown in the Preferences or similar dialog). Then, copy the file FabFilter Pro-C.dll from C:\Program Files\FabFilter\Pro-C to the plug-ins folder that you have found and restart the host so it can reload all its plug-ins.

If you are using the RTAS version of Pro-C, copy the FabFilter Pro-C.dpm and FabFilter Pro-C.dpm.rsr files to the Pro Tools plug-in directory on your computer.

If you still have problems, contact FabFilter Support.
