Thanks for reporting this @Zach_McNees.

I'll take a look at it over the weekend and see if I can work out what is happening. I think it might be because there are no pan sliders on Master tracks. Hopefully, I can work out a way to get the track width without needing them.

Out of interest, is it throwing an error when trying to instantiate plugins on the master track?

Hi again @Zach_McNees,

Unfortunately, I'm unable to make the script fail, even when using the session you provided.

Can you provide some more information for me?

What version of Pro Tools are you using?
Are any floating windows covering the target insert slot?
Are you using the plugin loader in the Mix or Edit window when seeing the issue?
Can you take a screenshot of the Preset you are using?
What is the width of your Master track (Note: the plugin loader only works on mono and stereo tracks right now.)
Does the plugin have an option for the width you're trying to open?

It would be great to get a screen recording of the preset failing. That may shed some light on the issue.

Thanks in advance.

Strange! So it works for you on my session on the master? It works on everything but the master for me.

Pro Tools 20223.6
No floating windows
Fails in mix and edit window
Not using a preset. Just trying to load the Soothe2 straight out of the Teezio Plugin Loader Macro. It works perfectly on "Clips 1" but fails on the Master.
Stereo Master Track

So odd! Here's a screen vid:

Latest error said "could not find audio output path selector button"

OH! Tool tips on seems to have fixed it! How interesting. Thank you!

Hey, having the same issue here, and I checked to ensure that ToolTips are both on. Any idea what coul dbe causing it? Otherwise my info is the same as Zach listed above, Pro Tools 2023.6 and all the rest, except using Devil-Loc Deluxe instead of Soothe2 but I'd imagine that shouldn't make a difference. Only other issue is that the error I get doesn't say "could not find audio output path selector button," and I've pasted below the errors that get listed in the log upon each failed attempt.
