Installing the VoiceMeeter plugin

Manual installation

Plugins are registered by extracting their built files in to %appdata%/midi-mixer-app/plugins. While a .midiMixerPlugin file will manage this process automatically, you can also manually install a plugin to this location.

If you're using the Windows Store version of MIDI Mixer instead of the standalone version and this path doesn't exist, try the following instead:

%localappdata%\Packages\60992MIDIMixer.MIDIMixer_crf4gtfkaz836\LocalCache\Roaming\midi-mixer-app\plugins

The most important detail is that a plugin.json file is in the root of the extracted plugin.

For example, an extracted plugin named com.midi-mixer.discord would have the following file tree:

midi-mixer-app/
├─ plugins/
│  ├─ com.midi-mixer.discord/
│  │  ├─ plugin.json
│  │  ├─ ...other files...

Once you've extracted the files, head in to the plugins UI and hit the refresh button to see your new plugin!

The "Refresh" button is highlighted at the top centre of the image

If you don't see your plugin after hitting the refresh button or you're having other issues, check the troubleshooting guide.
