I have tried everything I could find from previous people with the same problem. My VST_PATH and VST3_PATH are both set to the correct folders, and I set up yabridge and dxvk (not sure if this is necessary but I tried both before and after installing these), but Renoise still can’t find the plugins.
vst or vsti, are you looking in the tracks dsp tab or instrument editor?
both vst and vsti, both places show no plugins. it says 0 vsts found when I rescan.
Where is correct folders? What is the target plugin?
~/.vst and ~/.vst3 are the ones I’m using. the target is several plugins that I used in fl studio before getting renoise including Vital and Valhalla Supermassive for example
Are you trying to use a plugin for Windows?
Can you use a plugin for Linux?
I’m using windows plugins, but yabridge is supposed to convert them to be usable on linux, and renoise advertises being able to use vsts on linux
“yabridgectl --help”
To use it properly, you need to read the manual.
Are you using wine-staging v9.21?
Additionally, you must place the plugin in the appropriate directory under WINEPREFIX and execute the appropriate yabridgectl command.
I followed the manual but I missed a couple things, downgrading wine has not fixed the issue. the command yabridgectl status shows that all the plugins are synced, so I’m guessing the problem is not with yabridge.
Also, during the process of downgrading wine I got an error
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found
I also see these when running sudo apt update(I set winehq-staging to hold updates)
W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.

could this be related?
How did you set those environment variables? Was it with your bashrc file or some other shell rc file? Or did you use something else?
I added
export PATH=“$PATH:$HOME/.local/share/yabridge”
export VST_PATH=$HOME/.vst$VST_PATH
export VST3_PATH=$HOME/.vst3$VST3_PATH
to .bashrc and I’m using the default wine prefix, am I missing anything?
In that case, Renoise will only detect your plugins if you launch it from your terminal.
If you don’t want to launch Renoise this way, then you’ll have to set the environment variables a different way.
What I like to do was copy the Renoise desktop file from the root directory to my local directory like this:
cp /usr/share/applications/renoise.desktop ~/.local/share/applications
Then edit the ~/.local/share/applications/renoise.desktop file with a text editor like Vim or Nano to add these lines at the bottom:
export VST_PATH=/usr/lib/vst:/usr/local/lib/vst:~/.vst:/usr/lib64/vst
export LXVST_PATH=/usr/lib/lxvst:/usr/local/lib/lxvst:~/.lxvst:/usr/lib64/lxvst
export LADSPA_PATH=/usr/lib/ladspa:/usr/local/lib/ladspa:~/.ladspa:/usr/lib64/ladspa:/usr/share/ladspa
export LV2_PATH=/usr/lib/lv2:/usr/local/lib/lv2:~/.lv2:/usr/lib64/lv2
export DSSI_PATH=/usr/lib/dssi:/usr/local/lib/dssi:~/.dssi:/usr/lib64/dssi
Once that’s set up, Renoise should be able to load plugins by launching it from clicking on the icon.
There are different ways of setting your environment variables and you can learn more about it here if you wish.
That’s the thing, I’ve only been launching Renoise from the terminal
yes, other than DSSI since I don’t have any DSSI plugins
Maybe try replacing $HOME with just ~ and ditch the $VST_PATH and $VST3_PATH at the end since those are unnecessary. Perhaps also try removing the quotation marks in your paths and see if that works.
The way I had it before already returned the correct directories when I checked with echo, but I tried the changes you suggested and still no change
Have you tried restarting your bash session by closing and relaunching your terminal or by simply running bash?
If you have, then happens if you comment out export PATH=“$PATH:$HOME/.local/share/yabridge” in your .bashrc file then restart your bash session and try launching Renoise again?
