I have 450+ plugins, trying to find a specific plugin in the batch processor without a search field is a nightmare!!
Specifically the “Resampler” is so hidden, it’s very difficult to find. I spend an hour now searching for the resampler and still haven’t found it.
Plugin-Manager: It would be nice to have the option to organize plugins according to custom folders (like in Cubase / Nuendo), that we can name and sort as we need them. It’s really hard to follow someone elses organizer logic.
I agree this search feature must come someday.
Side note: since WaveLab 11, you can save/load batch processor plugin chains.
Specifically the “Resampler” is so hidden
Plugins that are common to the Master Section (90%) are located at the same place in the hierarchy. Hence you can use the Master Section search’s facility to get an hint.
The Resampler can be found for sure
Thanks you for the reply and tips! I do have about 10 plugin chains saved that I recall with key commands using the Stream Deck (great combo). The batch processor is a real time saver. I would use it for new (complex) ideas a lot more though, if I had a plugin search field. I find myself giving up on new projects because of the time contraints. I will be patient, wait and very happy when a search field comes to the batch processor within Wavelab. Maybe also folders in Favorites or the like. Cheers!
Thank you for your response. I am aware of the current “plugin manager” in preferences. That is where I added the “resampler” to my “Favorites” folder. Only problem, I have so many plugin in that folder already, it doesn’t make my search that much easier. If we had the option of creating folders within “Favorites”, then I could create a folder “Batch” and put all plugins in there, that I always reuse or need often in the batch processor (like resampler, dither, peak limited stuff aso).
