Question / Help Change default folder for VST search?

[ZUDED]

Hey guys,

I do a ton of audio work and always have prior to using OBS and streaming my content. Because of this I've put all my VSTs onto a separate hard drive in an irregular folder. How do I reroute the VST folder so my plugins continue to show in the drop down menu for audio filtering?

I don't think it is possible, but if you're on windows, try using a junction,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_junction_point#Creating_or_deleting_a_junction_point

so for example if your vst folder is on G:\AlltheVST the command would be something like, mklink /J "C:/Program Files/VSTPlugins/" G:\AlltheVST

(you might not be able to use an absolute path for the target but it should work. you don't have to create a dummy directory first)

Also from my own testing, beware that OBS' VST solution is kind of alpha. Use at your own risk.
