Troubleshooting:

If you're unable to load Arcade in Logic Pro X the first step we recommend is restarting your computer.

If restarting your computer doesn't solve the issue, we recommend rescanning your plugins. To automatically rescan all installed plug-ins, please perform a Full Audio Unit Reset:

  1. Choose Logic Pro > Preferences > Plug-In Manager.
  2. Click Full Audio Unit Reset.
  3. Close Logic Pro, then reopen it. Logic Pro rescans all installed Audio Units plug-ins.
  4. Check Logic Pro or MainStage to see if the plug-in is available.

The above option is not available on older versions of Logic.  If you do not have the option available in your plug-in manager, we can accomplish the same thing manually:

  1. In the Finder, hold down Option and choose Go > Library in the top menu bar.
  2. In the Finder window, go to Library/Caches/AudioUnitCache.
  3. Move the files from AudioUnitCache folder to the Desktop
  4. Restart the computer, then open Logic Pro X. All of your installed Audio Units plug-ins will be rescanned.
