### Method 1: Verifying Plugins via Track Insert

Below are two methods for verifying successful installation of both the Audio Element Plugin and Audio Renderer Plugin. The "Mix Bus" will refer to an **Aux Input track** for monitoring the output of your session.&#x20;

1\. Open Avid Pro Tools.

2\. Create a New Session or Open an Existing Session.

3\. Add an Audio Track:

* Select Track > New > Mono or Stereo Audio Track, depending on your project setup.

4\. Access the Insert Slots on the track:

* In the Mix or Edit window, find the Insert slot (usually on the left side of the track channel strip).

5\. Select the plugin:

* Select an empty Insert slot.

* To access the **Audio Element Plugin**, navigate to the insert drop-down list, and select either the plugin **Categories** (e.g., Multi-Channel Plug-In or Sound Field) or **Manufacturers** (Avid, Eclipsa Project) to find the Eclipsa Audio Element Plugin.<br>

* To access the **Audio Renderer,** navigate to an existing Mix Bus aux track or create a new Aux Input track for use as the mix bus.&#x20;

* Set the Mix Bus / Aux track's width to **5th Order Ambisonics** to support 3D audio monitoring as shown below.&#x20;

* Locate the Audio Renderer within the **Instrument** category or under the **Eclipsa Project** manufacturer category:<br>

6\. Verify:

* &#x20;If both plugins appear in the plugin list and load when selected, they have been installed correctly.<br>

<mark style="color:yellow;">**Note:**</mark> This method does not provide full plugin management (like enabling or disabling plugins), but it does help verify that the plugin has loaded and is available for use.&#x20;

{% tab title="Adobe Premiere Pro" %}

### Verify Via Audio Plug-In Manager

1\. Open Adobe Premiere Pro, either opening an existing project or starting a new project

2\. If the created project does not have a Sequence, create one: File --> New  --> Sequence...

3\. Open the Audio Track Mixer window for any existing Sequence: Window --> Audio Track Mixer --> Sequence Name

4\. In the Audio Track Mixer window, click the hamburger button in the top right corner and select "Audio Plug-In Manager"

5\. In the "Audio Plug-In Manager" select "Scan for Plug-Ins"

6\. Verify the "Eclipsa Audio Element Plugin" and "Eclipsa Audio Renderer" are listed in the table with Status "Working", typically at the bottom of the list.<br>

<figure><img src="/files/q151h8MGzuuynH6rQAhs" alt=""><figcaption><p>"Eclipsa Audio Renderer" and "Eclipsa Audio Element Plugin" are shown at the bottom of the list</p></figcaption></figure>

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Logic Pro" %}

### [Verify Via Logic Pro Plug-In Manager](#logic-pro)

1. Open Logic Pro (either create a new project or open an existing one).
2. From the menu bar, select **Logic Pro** → **Settings** → **Plug-in Manager.**
3. In the Plug-in Manager window, you can view all installed plugins organized by manufacturer.
4. In the left sidebar under "Manufacturer", look for and select **Eclipsa Project.**
5. Verify that the Eclipsa plugins are listed in the main table as shown in below image:
   * "Eclipsa Audio Element Plugin for Logic Pro" (Type: effect)
   * "Eclipsa Audio Renderer for Logic Pro" (Type: effect)
6. Check that both plugins show "successfully validated" in the Compatibility column.
7. If the plugins don't appear or show validation issues, click **Reset & Rescan Selection** to force Logic Pro to rescan for plugins:<br>

#### Alternative Method - Loading Plugins in Logic Pro

1. Create a new audio track or select an existing one.
2. In the Channel EQ/Insert section of the track, click on an empty insert slot.
3. Navigate through the plugin menu hierarchy to find your Eclipsa plugins:
   * **Audio Units**  → **Manufacturer: Eclipsa Project** → **Eclipsa Audio Element Plugin for Logic Pro**
   * **Audio Units**  → **Manufacturer: Eclipsa Project** → **Eclipsa Audio Renderer for Logic Pro**
4. If the plugins load successfully, they are properly installed and validated.<br>
