Managing how plugins are displayed

[stevebozz]

Is there a way to manage the listing of plugins in Logic 5? All my plugins get installed to the default VST directory, but my insert menus are a bit crazy and I'd like to control how they're displayed, even the names of them.

Is this possible? How do ya'll keep your plugins tidy?

Thanks!

With VSTs it's easy - just sort your VST files into folders sorted the way you want.

For example, when I'm looking for a compressor, I don't want to have to hunt through hundreds of files where the file name doesn't have much to do with what the plug does, so I put all my VST compressors in a folder called 'compressors'.

Why can't you do that with ProTools?!?

WHY CAN'T YOU DO THAT WITH PROTOOLS?!?

i tried this with Cubase on mac and i don't think i got it to work right. would that be a mac/cubase issue?
