To hide any AAX 64 plug-ins (UAD or otherwise) from Pro Tools 11 and later, follow the steps below:
- First, navigate to the Pro Tools AAX plug-in folder listed below:
- macOS: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio
- Windows: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Avid\Audio
- Here you will see two folders - “Plug-Ins” and “Plug-Ins (Unused)”. All UAD plug-ins are installed to the “Plug-Ins” folder by default.
To hide certain plug-ins from Pro Tools, simply move the plug-in to the Plug-Ins (Unused) folder. The next time you open Pro Tools, only the plug-ins remaining in the Plug-Ins folder will show up in Pro Tools and any plug-ins moved to the Plug-Ins (Unused) folder will not be shown.
