    Yo whats good peoples, well, I was messin around with my maschine studio today & then it crashed....not that unusual I know, so I go to restart my MBP & fire Maschine up again & all I have is AU's :wow: , I check my HD & my "vst folder" is not there? :wow: I do a complete search of my laptop & no-where to be found :wow: . I went into Maschine preferences & checked out the plug ins directory & the vst folder location is still there so I rescanned that in hopes of my computer going into the depths of itself & all would be ok.... :beg: the vst's still seem to be present but when I check in Finder the vst folder itself is "invisible" or sumthin cause it just ain't there. For every VST I have there was also an AU to go with it, for the most part it ain't gonna destroy my mojo' :boombox:

    I'm just curious as hell now as to why, how & where it could have went? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated... :wink:

    the program crashing has most likely caused the folder to become corrupt, most likely reading/writing to it when maschine threw a wobbly
