How to find app after .dmg installation?

I downloaded a dmg file to install an app, but I can't find the app after I installed it from the file. I've looked in my applications folder and searched for it in finder, but it still won't show. How can I find this app?

Dune 2 is not a stand alone App. If the installation succeeded the plugin and its components can be found in

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components

/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST

~/Music/Synapse Audio

It is a VST plugin as you mention. It requires a host VST compatible application to run. Once installed it will appear in this App in its effects options.


Apps such as Pro Tools or Adobe Premiere, etc...

I should have added in my last post, when you double click on a .dmg, it opens another icon. That's the icon you need to work from. It should show up both in the Dock, and on the Desktop. Make sure it isn't hidden behind a finder window.


If you're sure of all that, and that it's done downloading, you must have got a bad download. Try downloading it again.
