Hi Scott,
I have not got access to the eventide blackhole plugin, but I had a look at
the glitchmachines fracture plugin. Using this plugin, there were no
factory presets available from the manage menu. When the user interface was
set to gui, there's a combo box which does let sighted users choose various
"factory" presets. Unfortunately, when the graphical user interface is not
enabled, the sliders allow you to change the parameters that are available
in the gui, but not the presets.
My only suggestion is to try and import one of the presets. That is, on the
manage menu, choose import, and try and open one of the blackhole presets
from the folder where they were installed. Please let me know whether this
works or not,
David.

Hello.
I have a question and I hope it's not too dumb. I installed the eventide
blackhole plugin, the 32-bit version even though I'm on windows 64 because
I've read that 32-bit plugins work better still.
Anyway, I copied the blackhole.dll file to my audacity plugins folder and
after unchecking graphical interface, I have access to all the sliders.
The problem comes in when I try to access the different presets that are
available. I go to manage, factory presets, hit right arrow, and enter on
default and nothing happens.
The question I have is, does accessing the .dll from the plugins directory
effect whether or not it would be able to access those presets? I thought
it might so I copied some of the preset files to my plugins directory also,
assuming that the .dll file needed the information in the same folder since
I had copied it to a different location anyway.
I restarted audacity, went through the same procedure and get the same
result. This makes me wonder if there's something about the plugin where
it's not allowing audacity to access the presets? I've seen this behavior
with other plugs where I'm not able to access this information so was
wondering if there's some limitation with audacity in this regard?
I hope that all is pretty clear and thanks for any help you might be able
to provide.
Scott
