I am trying out Pro Tools First before going for a subscription based but I can't find my plugins from Izotope under AudioSuite in DAW.
I am using all the plugins in Ableton Live without any problems. Is it because Pro Tools First is free and limits third party plugins?

Please advice.
 
What format are the plugs?
I'm not sure if it even allows 3rd party plugs but, if it does, it'll want AAX.
 
Yep, probably no VST or anything other than AAX will work.
 
If that turns out to be true, have a google.
Many plugin manufacturers are offering AAX versions now as a free update; Waves, for example.
 
If it's not under the Audio Suite menu (which I'm not sure why you'd be using plug-ins through Audio Suite instead of real-time on the tracks, but that's another issue), then they should be under the real-time plug-ins on the individual tracks.

If it's not there, Pro Tools First most likely limits third-party plug-ins because it's free. That's my bet over the plug-ins not being in Audio Suite/real-time.

Actually yeah - I overlooked that the OP mentioned audiosuite menu.
Look under inserts on an individual track to see what's there. ^^

That's true but Izotope have some AAX versions.

His plugs may or may not be AAX, but he needs to look up real time plugs instead of using the audiosuite menu either way.

True, but if he's looking for plugins that he had before trying Pro Tools then they're probably not AAX.
 
Thanks for the answers guys. I found out that Pro Tools First does not allow 3rd party plugins as it is free. We can only use plugins from their marketplace.
