About the plugin UI
StudioPilot renders its interface using the platform WebView — WebKit on macOS and WebView2 on Windows. Keeping your OS up to date avoids blank-window and rendering glitches. On Windows, WebView2 ships with Edge 85+ but can also be installed independently from microsoft.com.
Troubleshooting
Plugin doesn't appear after install
Trigger a plugin rescan in your DAW. On macOS you can also re-run AU validation: open Audio MIDI Setup, go to Audio Unit Extensions, and re-enable StudioPilot.
Blank window when opening the plugin
Close and reopen the DAW. On Windows, install or repair Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (free from microsoft.com), then restart.
No audio output from StudioPilot
Confirm the track carrying StudioPilot is routed to your master bus or an audio output. StudioPilot generates audio and needs a live signal path to your speakers.
Plugin crashes on load
Send the crash log to support@studiopilot.tech with your DAW name, version, and OS version. Crash logs on macOS are in ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.
