Let us know which VST2.x plug-ins are working in Dorico

Dear Gone to lunch,
You mean you can see them in the right panel of Play mode, use them as playback instruments (assigning the players in the left panel some instruments from those plug-ins) but they do not show up in the mixer after that? And probably don’t play either? That’s odd…
Could you post a picture of your Play mode window showing the assignments on the players panel?
