Plugin Not Showing in Nuendo

If you have installed your MixWave plugin and it is not showing in Nuendo, try rescanning your plugins and checking Nuendo’s blocklist.

Rescan Plugins

1. Open Nuendo.

2. From the top menu, select Studio > VST Plug-in Manager, or press F7.

3. Click the Gear icon (Plug-in Manager Settings) in the bottom-left corner to view the folders Nuendo scans for plugins.

4. Confirm that the plugin’s installation folder is included.

5. Click the Update/Rescan icon in the upper-right corner of the settings section to force Nuendo to check for new or missing plugins.

6. Allow the scan to finish, then check whether the plugin appears.

The scanning process may take several minutes, depending on how many plugins are installed.

Check the Blocklist

If the plugin still does not appear:

1. Open Studio > VST Plug-in Manager.

2. Select the Blocklist tab. In some versions of Nuendo, this may be labeled Blacklist.

3. Locate the affected plugin.

4. Select it and click Reactivate.

5. Restart Nuendo and allow the plugin scan to complete.

Reinstall the Plugin

1. Close Nuendo and any other audio applications.

2. Uninstall the plugin by following the steps outlined in this guide: Uninstalling Plugins.

3. Reinstall the plugin using the latest MixWave installer.

4. Reopen Nuendo and perform another plugin rescan.
