Feedback and bug reports: All new plugins added to this list are tested in the Audacity 2.x version current at the time, but many of the older plugins are still in need of testing. Please report any bugs to the Nyquist section of the Audacity forum (or alternatively to our feedback email address) so they may be fixed. Please also let us know which plugins you like and find useful as that will help us to develop the types of plugins that users want.

Plugin authors

These plugins have been contributed by:

• Steve Daulton

Installing Plu-ins

Nyquist plugins may be available as plain text files with the file extension .NY, or as a ZIP archive file. The NY file must be extracted from the ZIP archive before it can be used.

To install Nyquist plugins, place the NY file in the "Plug-Ins" folder inside the Audacity installation folder.

• On Windows computers, this is usually at C:\Program Files\Audacity or on 64-bit Windows this will be C:\Program Files (x86)\Audacity.
• On Mac OS X, it is usually under /Applications.
• On Linux this is usually /usr/share/audacity/ if you installed a repository package of Audacity or /usr/local/share/audacity if you compiled Audacity. Note: You must log in as root to access /usr. Repository packages of Audacity may overwrite this folder. An easier alternative may be to create ~/.audacity-files/plugins/ in your home folder (the "." in the path means it is a hidden folder).

Restart Audacity, then the plugins will appear underneath the divider in the "Effect", "Generate" or "Analyze" menus.

Plug-in Lists

In the lists below, click a "Downloads" link to go to the page for Generate, Effect or Analyze plug-ins, or click the individual links to go directly to the description of that plug-in. Each description has links to View and Download the plug-in.

• Left-clicking the View link displays the plug-in code in your browser. You can right-click over the link and "Save Target As " or "Save Link As" to download the NY file.
• Left-clicking the Download link will download the same NY file archived inside a ZIP file. The ZIP archive may also contain help files or other useful information. The contents of the ZIP file must be extracted before they can be used.
  • If left-click does not download the ZIP correctly, right-click over the link and "Save Target As " or "Save Link As" instead.
