What are your Installer's default delivery folders for PC and Mac? (for vst3 etc.)

1

I’m about to do my installer for PC, and Mac.

Where do you default suggest install for VST3 on PC? c:\program files\common files\vst3? I’m wondering what DAWs generally have a default scan path for vst3s?

Also for Mac OS, same question, something like $HOME\Library\Audio\Plugins\vst3 ?
(Reaper on Mac had that in the default search path.)

At the moment I’ve built just a vst3. Is it really necessary these days to build other versions, outside of vst3…
I think Logic X does not support VST3 - is that correct - so I have to build an AU?
And I suppose I have to create an AAX for Pro Tools(?)

Hi,
the VST3 path is defined in the VST3 specification and not supposed to be customized.
See VST3 documentation.
cheers
