Since C12 I have been using custom plug-in collections sorted by vendor and purpose to keep my ever expanding collection of FX VSTs somewhat functional. I also have all my JBridged plugins sorted like this and it has been extremely helpful as I migrate old projects (now to C13).
But one thing that is really bugging me now is that when a new plug-in is added to the system, it is not automatically added to the custom collection (makes sense) but there is no way to see what if anything in the main plugin list ISN’T in the custom collection.
Since I am just showing all of my plugins in a slightly modified folder structure… I want them all in the custom collection. So I have had to sit and just hit the down arrow key 100s of times just to find one that isn’t in the collection.
Is this perhaps me just not knowing some option to turn on? If this is currently the only way to handle this, can I suggest adding a filter to the main list (not in collection or something like that)?
Anybody out there have a suggestion for a better way to handle this?
