Sorry for such an elementary post. I'm new to PARIS on an IBM machine, have
always run Mac. There are so many free plugins including Chucks. I hear of
wrappers, yet I read a post lately where a post said they had just created
a vst folder and put the plugins there. Would you just place the DII file
in the folder or what. I have a very simple setup a bundle III on a pentium
III running XP on an 866mhz machine. I'm only about 2 steps above ignorant
concerning IBMs so be gentle please ;^)any help will be appreciated.

VSTs that have an installer typically want to install to C:\program
files\steinberg\vsts. Many here recommend putting all your vst dll
files in c:\vsts so you won't have a long path.

I would also recommend putting them in c:\vsts but when you do this any
installs (by running setup.exe or such) need to point them to c:\vsts.

Also, check c:\vsts after installs and if the setup.exe made
subdirectories you will need to move the dlls out of them to the c:\vsts
level so Paris can see them. Also make sure to tell Paris where c:\vsts
is in the Paris.cfg file.

If I remember correctly, all of Chuck's plugins have a txt file with install
info that tells you how to install and were to put what. As for VSTs in
Paris, I have never run them, only DX, EDS and hopefully 'Pulsar via
external send' soon so I can't help ya there.

Good luck
