I've dropped the .dll files into my VST Folder but they wont show up after a rescan when all my other VSTs do.

Hi Vince! I don't have Windows 10, so it's hard for me to help. Did you download the 32 bit or 64 bit Windows DLLs? It should just be a matter of copying the files named Dragonfly*Reverb-vst.dll into your VST folder and refreshing your DAW's plugin cache. Does Reaper give you any error log when it has trouble loading a VST? Does it have some kind of a blacklist that you can clear before rescanning?

Thanks for the fast response! i downloaded the 64 bit version as that's what i use but no luck. I did clear the cache and rescan but they are not there and no error. Ill try the 32 bit version and see if that works, but what do you mean by blacklist? Sorry, im just getting into recording/mixing and not too familiar with everything yet

It sounds like you're doing the right things. The 32-bit version won't work in 64-bit Reaper. I know that at least one Win10/Reaper user has successfully loaded these plugins, so I don't know why it isn't working for you.

Some DAWs are designed so that if there is trouble loading a plugin, they will not try to load that plugin in the future, that's called blacklisting. I'm not sure if Reaper does that.

You could ask the folks on the Reaper Forum, they might have some suggestions that I haven't thought of.

Hi, very keen to try the dragonfly reverb but can't for the life of me work out why I can't get them up and running in logic x. Vst goes in the right folder, nothing - restart computer nothing - delete cache rescan nothing. Its not even showing up in the logic plugin manager. Any ideas?

Logic X 10.5.1
macOS Catalina 10.15.6

Logic doesn't use VSTs that is why you can't even see the plugin. It uses AU files and Dragonfly doesn't have AU or AAX support. You will need to either use Vienna Ensemble Pro or a VST wrapper for it to work. I guess you can also you Bluecat Patchwork.

Important update: Please download the new Dragonfly Reverb 3.2.5. This fixes a bug which could cause bad behavior immediately upon loading the plugin, including a blast of noise that some people experienced.
