I need to take a look at my Windows installation, that I will delete,
because Linux now is fine on my machine, but as far as I remember VSTs
are in \Blabla\Steinberg\VST or similar to this and a user can rename
and add what ever he likes to this path AND Cakewalk or what ever, will
take a look too, to this directory. It might be different for LADSPAs on
Windows, but there seems to be still an advantage the way VSTs are used.
