To make a long story short, I had a horrible experience with KXStudio and Jack, and I decided to uninstall both of them, but ever since I did that, Renoise no longer sees my plugins. The$VST_PATH is correct, and the plugins are still visible in other DAWs. What’s going on?
Update: It seems that Renoise detects the plugins when I open it as root.
Where/hoe have you defined $VST_PATH? Are you sure it’s defined for your user (and non just root) too?
Does launching Renoise in the terminal via “$VST_PATH=/home/user/.vst Renoise” work then?
Are VSTs enabled in Renoises preferences?
Thank you for trying to help, but I’ve found the solution.
Cadance left behind configs that created various issues, including conflicting with VST_PATH. In the command line, I needed to do “sudo apt-get purge cadance” and “rm -r ~/.pulse/”, and that fixed it. Renoise sees my plugins again.
