The best way to
usesearchorganize your plugin library.

It's easy to forget what plugins you already have, so Plugindex gives you the ability to sort through what you have by picture instead of name.

Click the plugin or add it as a hot key. All it takes is one click or hot key press to load your plugin. Plugindex drives your DAW the way you would, and the plugin lands on the selected track in the next free slot.

It is the browser your DAW should have had. You can actually see every plugin you own, categorized automatically. This takes the busy work out of categorizing and organizing your entire plugin library while also giving you the option to customize your organization. Plugindex speeds up your workflow by shortening the distance between you and the plugins that you use to make music. Its design encourages creativity and nudges you toward plugins you forgot you had.

Yes. It scans your computer and adds only what you have, so every plugin your DAW can load shows up in Plugindex.

It includes 14 days of Pro. After that your library and your mappings stay the same. Every plugin in your index is still searchable. Loading plugins through Plugindex becomes limited to 50 a week, resetting every Monday. Key mappings become limited to three mapped keys total. Upgrade to Pro, $99 once, for unlimited loads and key mapping, the remote on any device, Stream Deck keys, SoundFlow commands, the Sidecar and Mini shapes, loading through AudioSuite, checking a Live set before you open it, and a year of updates.

Yes, for a year. You pay once, and if you never pay again, the version you have keeps working. Every update released in your first year is included. After that, a newer version is an upgrade at half price, and it's optional: you only upgrade when a new version has something you want. Free is always the newest version, because it's how people try Plugindex, but every version of Free keeps the same limits: 50 loads a week and three keys.

On the Mac: Ableton Live 11 and 12, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, FL Studio, Cubase and Nuendo 15 or later, Bitwig Studio, REAPER and Fender Studio Pro 8.

On Windows: Ableton Live, Cubase and Nuendo 15 or later, FL Studio, Bitwig Studio, REAPER and Fender Studio Pro 8, with Pro Tools still in progress.

The chart below has it host by host. Plugindex detects the DAW that is running and shows only what it can load.

Logic Pro 10 has not been tested, so we can't promise it. Plugindex is tested on Logic Pro 12 and macOS 26 Tahoe, and customers use it on Logic Pro 11. Free costs nothing, so try it in your own Logic before you buy.

The app runs on macOS 13 Ventura or later, Apple silicon and Intel. macOS 27 Golden Gate hasn't been tested yet.

No. It runs beside your DAW, not in your session. It is not a plugin, so it is never in your signal path. Summon it, load, and it is gone.

To activate a license, then a quick check about once a day while it is online. The app runs offline in between, and a dropped connection never locks you out. If it cannot check in for sixty days, loading falls back to the Free allowance until it can. A license activated before version 1.4 needs one online check by the end of 2026 to carry on.

Yes. Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. Pro Tools on Windows is still in progress. See the compatibility chart for every DAW.

Open Setup & connection in the Plugindex menu: it shows one step at a time, and restarting your DAW once fixes most of the rest. The help page has setup and fixes for every DAW. Still stuck? Choose Send feedback… in the same menu and we'll take it from there.
