Steps:
- Download and install the latest version of Audacity (note where you save the files), if you haven’t already. Also download the GSnap.zip file (Which version do I download? Look below) from the links specified above.
- Once you’ve download the GSnap.zip file, extract it to a location (How do I extract files? Look below). Once extracted, open the new extracted folder and copy the .dll file. Alternatively, you can double-click to open the downloaded file (How do I open a .zip file without Winzip?) and copy the GSnap.dll file you find.
- Now head to the folder you saved the Audacity files during the installation. If you do not remember it, try checking C:Program Files (x86)Audacity (for Windows-64 bit users) or C:Program FilesAudacity (for Windows-32 bit users). On Mac OS X, it is usually in the “/Applications” folder. On Linux, you must add a “plug-ins” folder to /usr/bin/ (if you installed a packaged version of Audacity) or to /usr/local/bin (if you installed a self-compiled version of Audacity). If you still do not find it, go to the main folder (which contains all your drives) and type ‘Audacity’ into the search box (on the top-right of the screen).
- 4. Double-click on the ‘Plug-Ins’ folder (located below the ‘Languages’ and ‘Nyquist’ folders). If you do not have a folder like that, you might need to re-install the software.
- Once you enter the ‘Plug-Ins’ folder, paste the GSnap.dll file you had copied in Step 2. Now close the window.
- Open ‘Audacity’ (the application). Go to Effects and scroll using the downward arrow symbol (∇). If you find GSnap, you’re done! If you don’t, head on to Step 7.
- Go to Effect → Add / Remove Plug-ins… → Click on ο New in the Plug-in Manager: Effects, Generators and Analyzersdialog box → Select GSnap → Click Enable → Click OK.
- Restart the application and you’re done.

2. How do I extract (unzip) files without software like 7-Zip or Winzip?
How To Add Gsnap To Audacity Mac
A-
On Windows,
To unzip the entire folder, right-click (or press and hold) it, select Extract All, then follow the instructions. To unzip a single file or folder, double-click the zipped folder to open it. Then, drag or copy the item from the zipped folder to a new location.
On Mac OS,
Install Gsnap Audacity Mac
Double-click on the zipped folder icon.
Mac OS Extractor will unzip the file in just a moment or 2. When it is done, you will see the unzipped folder icon bearing the same of the folder that was zipped.
On Linux,
Right-click on the .zip file and click “Extract Here” (the name may vary).
The file should be located in a directory named after the archive, without the extension.
3. Why does not the GSnap effect show in the Plug-in Manager, even when I have followed all the steps?
A- You have to restart the application. If you have done that and it still doesn’t show, you can try extracting and then copy-pasting the .dll file from the extracted folder. Even if that does not work, try downloading the file again.
4. Why is there no Plug-Ins folder?
A- Reinstall Audacity or try searching for a folder named ‘Plug-Ins’ (if it might have been misplaced elsewhere).

Background
Having received several queries about Mac versions over the years, I had a go at crowd-sourcing some funds to fast-track a Mac-porting project some months ago. That was unsuccessful, sadly.
However, off the back of that I was given a battered old MacBook by a nice mathematician at the University of Bath. So, I've been playing with that a little in my spare time to see what I can do. With some extra RAM from eBay, I managed to drag it as far as OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) and start compiling some code.
In the interest of creating better multi-platform code, I decided to look at Linux at the same time. So I grabbed Ubuntu Studio 14.04, installed it on an old USB stick and started developing on there too.
