How to use DDMF Plugin Doctor in Live?

Post by nrgskill » Sun Jun 09, 2024 11:58 am

I'd like to use DDMF Plugin Doctor to copy various plugins' EQ curves to EQ Eight.
Unfortunately, EQ Eight cannot be loaded as a VST in Plugin Doctor.
I tried with the standalone version and a loopback (native in Focusrite drivers) but unsuccessful.

Do you have any advice?

So what's the exact issue? Are you on Windows on Mac? Why is the VST or VST3 not showing up?

From their site:
"Plugindoctor fills a longstanding gap in the market: a cross-platform and cross-bitformat plugin analyzer for VST and AU plugins.""

Live devices like EQ Eight are neither a VST nor an AU plugin, so it simply won't work.
