What plugin is it? Whatever it is, if it's OpenGL then I don't think Audition supports it. You need 64-bit VST plugins.

it's Gullfoss (by SoundTheory).

it's a 64 bit VST plugin - just like the hundreds of others on my system that display fine in Audition.

it also displays fine in every other DAW.

ergo: the problem is with Audition...

That's not necessarily the case, unfortunately. Audition is just about the fussiest software there is when it comes to VSTs, and whilst the little shortcuts other manufacturers take are ignored by other apps, Audition doesn't ignore them. And no we're not just talking about el cheapo plugins either - Waves ran into this problem, and had to rewrite theirs correctly before they'd work in Audition.

 

The clue in your case is that the rest of your plugins work fine... So I'm not saying that it's definitely not Audition's fault - simply that you cannot assume that it is. Ergo, more investigation is required.
