Audition 2021 - Not loading VST

I have a large number of VST and VST3 plug ins and since my recent Audition upgrades they are no longer loading in my effects. I have tried rescanning, removing the search folders in Audio Plug in manager, but to no avail!

 

Interestingly there are TWO VSTs that do show up as can be seen in the attached image. 

As an example, many of the AU plugs seen here have VST or VST3 versions which do not appear in the scan.

Am I missing something?

I realise that this is a bit basic, but have you checked that the locations for the VST files are correct, and actually contain the relevant .dll files?

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply! 

The Plug in Manager is pointing to my audio plug ins folders in my library. 

For example 

/Library/Audio/Plugins

/Library/Audio/Plugins/VST

However, there are no .dll files there, just .vst, .vst3 etc.

If these are 32-bit VST files, then you will need a bridge app like jbridge in order to run them in more recent 64-bit versions of Audition. You might want to check that too...
