Installing the Songfindr panel in Premiere Pro takes less than a minute. You need Premiere Pro 25.6 or later, on Windows or macOS.

Install with Creative Cloud (recommended)

  1. On the plugin page, click Download for Premiere Pro to get the .ccx file.
  2. Double-click the file: Creative Cloud Desktop installs the panel for you.
  3. In Premiere Pro, open Window > UXP Plugins > Songfindr.

Creative Cloud also takes care of replacing the old version when you install a new one.

If Creative Cloud does not work

If the .ccx will not install, you can put the panel in place yourself. Use this only as a fallback: here you replace old versions by hand.

  1. Quit Premiere Pro.
  2. Open the plugins folder (create it if it does not exist):
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Adobe\UXP\Plugins\External
    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/UXP/Plugins/External
  3. Delete any folder whose name starts with com.songfindr.premiere_. Two versions side by side confuse Premiere.
  4. On the plugin page, open Creative Cloud not working? and click Download the manual install (.zip). Unzip it and copy the folder it contains into the plugins folder.
  5. Start Premiere Pro and open Window > UXP Plugins > Songfindr.

Updates

When a new version is out, the panel tells you and links to the plugin page. The page's What's new section lists every change.
