I would like to populate the plugin in my system, either AU or VST or whatever.

I succeed in listing all plugins but AU ones, using the following message for umenau : "types BNDL aPcs, prefix /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/, depth 5, populate".

when I change the path to "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST", I got my VST ; idem for HAL... but for AU, umenu stays empty.

Do you know how can I add AU plugins to a umenu list ?

And do you know where I can find all the files types for the populate message ? Can't find the list of the compatible file type as precised in Max documentation (help : umenu, attribute : type).

Audio Units are not bundles, they are components. Well technically they are bundles, but they use component as their extension. I'm assuming this is why you can't see AU's.

Yes ; I think I must find the right parameter of the "type" fonction to call a compoenent.

But I can't find a list of the "type" parameters.... strange !

Try dropping an AU onto [dropfile] and see what type string you receive from the right outlet. This should be what you need for the "populate" message.

I tieid : perfect !! Thanks a lot :)
AU type is AUpi.

File type for populate message ? (especially, file type for AU)
