I downloaded the demo version of the PSP MixPack and for some odd reason, they don't show up in Live, yet they are in the correct folder (or so I assume) : Mac HD/Library/Audio/Plugins/VST...
Vst Folder Ableton Location Mac Download
All the plugs are there but not in Live. Furthermore, I'm a bit confused between the VST folder I mentioned above and the one found in the User's Home directory (ie: from the finder--> 'your name'/library/audio/plugins/vst/....)

How to install VST or AU plug-ins on Mac; AU or VST? Live on Mac supports both the Audio Unit (AU) and VST2 and VST3 (10.1 and later) formats.
When looking into the VST plugin browser in Live, under the actual VST folder there is a sub-folder called 'local' and another called 'user', yet both of them contain VST plugs. All I want is to understand the difference between these different VST locations and why some plugins dont' show up at all in Live when they're clearly there in one of these folders (I did try changing their location but in vain). Thanks for any help.
