Hey, so when I try to add my spitfish and you wa shock plugin, it doesn't allow me to and just says "Could not load the library" I've checked if it was downloaded at the right -bit for it, that it was in the plugin folder, I've even deleted and reinstalled the program twice and the plugins as many times as possible. any ideas? because I honestly have no idea at that point and might learn a whole new audio editor at that point.

have a nice day and thanks for reading.

Hello,

I am very new to audio edditing and haven't done anything to complicated on my computer for several years. I have been trying to get back into tinkering myself and I downloaded audacity for a personal project of mine.

I have been trying to learn the programm and think that in the Version I downloaded (3.7.4) there is no inbuilt Noise Gate, which I think I desperately need, since my setup provoces a unpleasant echo in my recordings. I allready know how to install plugins but I have a very sensitive VPN setup for my homeoffice for a bigger company and don't want to ruin it by accidentally installing malware with the plugin.

Unfortunately all the websites I found looked pretty scetchy, which is to be expected for an open source project, that much I know. The issue is that I have no idea which is a "safe" source for plugins, what that looks like or how to check. I know there is an official website, but I don't quite get why it's called "audacityteam.org" and I am a little suspicious because of the several phishing tecniques I know. I may also not know how to find the actual website and with the boosting you can do for websites nowadays it could also be a honeypot that I found.

I also tried allready searching on the reddit and with search engines, but couldn't find a clear answer. I also don't want to use A.I. for technical/ethical reasons and would apprechiate any help and advice you guys could give me.

Specifically, the QM (queen mary) Vamp plugins. I have the thing downloaded as a zip folder, but no idea how to get it into the Audacity program. Should I even be using Audacity? Could someone help with this?

I downloaded a plugin called Youwashock and added it to my plug-in list on audacity. It comes up in the Add/Remove Plug-ins option, but when I enable it, nothing happens. It doesn't show up in my list of effects and doesn't work when I use the keybind to use it.

Here is the download link if you want to try it yourself and see if it works: https://sites.google.com/site/youwashockvst/

If someone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This is probably the stupidest question I've ever asked on Reddit. To be honest, I prefer Audacity to Edison, and I usually end up having to export certain things just to plug them into Audacity, edit the sound a bit, and then export it from Audacity and import it back into FL. Even though I know the answer is probably no, is there a way to put Audacity into FL as a plugin?

So I bought a plugin and I’m trying to install it but I don’t understand the instructions 😭 If anyone could help me I’d appreciate it very much

Is there a faster way to add downloaded plugins????

Hey all! Ever since version 3.3.3 I haven't been able to find the options for Punch Copy/Paste in the Effects dropdown menu. It seems that it's been reorganized, but I'm not sure where you can find installed plugins anymore.

Thanks for the help!
