    I downloaded a bunch of dll’s from Bruce Wiggins, but where do I put these? I figured out where to put thejsplugins – not the dll’s – for example one of them is in a folder called “WigWare-PC-Plugins-x64” and one file out of the 12 is “WigAmbiDec_1o_GUI.dll”.where do I put these?

      I can only guess that those are VST plugins. No instructions on Bruce’s site?

          Solved. Reaper “preferences” menu, “VSTPlugins”. Create path for wherever I downloaded them or placed them, scan and load up in Reaper. I’ll try tonight

            I would put them where the other VST plugins on your system are. Reaper should show you that path. Best not to spread things out all over the system.
