Since our plug-ins do not function as standalone apps, you will need a host software (digital audio workstation, DAW) to use them.
For them to be listed, you must point your DAW to your plug-in folder. If you did not specify a custom location during the installation process, you can find your plug-ins in the following locations:

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
