If you haven’t done this already, put all your plugins in a specific folder on your computer (a location you will remember) and move the plugin you just downloaded into the folder as well. You can typically find this option within the settings of your DAW. After scanning for new plugins, they should be automatically installed. Again, how you do this is going to vary based on your DAW software, but you should be able to select the plugins you installed for specific tracks in your mix. It might seem a tad intimidating at first, but once you figure it out, you’ll find that installing new VSTs is relatively easy. I would encourage you to keep your folders organized and clean. Remove defective and buggy VSTs and those that cause your DAW to crash.
Keep those that work well and you can find utility for. This will ensure that you keep a stable working environment, which to me is crucial to staying efficient.
