Projects and DAW Support

Arthur Poiret edited this page Feb 10, 2026 · 7 revisions

Project feature in OwlPlug allows to scan DAW project files to extract referenced plugins. Plugins references in project files are compared to plugins installed in configured directories. This way, users can quickly identify missing plugins in the local setup.

⚠ DAW Project analysis is a new feature. For now, only Ableton Live, Reaper and Studio One are supported but other file formats may be supported in the future. The decision to support a DAW depends on various factor: technical constraints and format documentation, maintenance costs, and DAW popularity across the community.
