9 out of 10 plugins missing in mix

Question

I have been opening mixers recorded over the last few years and have been getting messages like this one ""Warning 9 out of 10 effects referenced by the file could not be found"" when the waves plugins stopped working under VST I did speak to someone about it, I guess it was waves, at the time they said they did not make VST Plugins only VST 3 they certainly worked in Audition under VST, now I have many mixers with this issue it's a complete mess they will all have to be remixed with the same plugin under VST 3... does anyone one have a solution. (this doesn't happen with tape recorders) !

As I stated in the initial post Waves stated that they never released VST plugins only VST 3's but they showed up as

VST and I used them as such untill an update some years ago and they stop appearing under VST, they use to be available as both VST AND VST3 AND I ALWAYS USED THE AS VST now when I open old mixes, Audition can't find them, that's the problem , there is no easy answer to the problem, I can't explain why all this happed but that's ther story. All they Plugins are 64 bit and only a few years old it's only happening in 2 year old mixes.

"this doesn't happen with tape recorders"

Nor with wax cylinders either I suspect 😉

You haven't told us what version of Audition you are running or what version of waves plugins you are running or even if you are on a PC or Mac or pretty much anything at all that might help.

However , I'm going to take a stab and suggest that either the plugins aren't where Audition expects them to be or they are 32bit which are no longer supported in later versions of Audition
