Manual installation

When installing FabFilter Pro-C, the installation program will try to copy the plug-in into the appropriate plug-ins folders, and in most cases your host will recognize FabFilter Pro-C automatically. Otherwise, please follow these instructions:

Windows

On Windows, 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 (or C:\Program Files (x86)\FabFilter\Pro-C if you are using a 32-bit host on 64-bit Windows) to the plug-ins folder that you have found and restart the host so it can reload all its plug-ins. For the AAX version of Pro-C, copy the FabFilter Pro-C.aaxplugin folder to the common Pro Tools AAX plug-in folder on your computer; for the RTAS version of Pro-C, copy the FabFilter Pro-C.dpm and FabFilter Pro-C.dpm.rsr files to the Pro Tools RTAS plug-in folder on your computer.

Mac OS X

On Mac OS X, plug-ins are installed in the standard plug-in folders in the system Library folder. These are the only possible correct locations:

Note: AU and VST/VST3 plug-ins may be placed in the user's Library folders under ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins as well.

If you still have problems, contact FabFilter Support .
