EQ II and Dynamics II (Compressor, Expander, Gate, Limiter) plug-ins are ...
 
EQ II and Dynamics II (Compressor, Expander, Gate, Limiter) plug-ins are missing when I open older sessions in Pro Tools 7.3 or higher.

Pro Tools 7.3.x and 7.4.x install the EQ III and Dynamics III plug-ins, and installs/moves EQ II and Dynamics II to the following location:

Mac OS X Systems:
Library > Application Support > Digidesign > Plug-Ins (Unused)

Windows XP Systems:
Program Files > Common Files > Digidesign > DAE > Plug-Ins (Unused)

If you have existing sessions that used EQ II and/or Dynamics II, you can move these to the Plug-Ins folder before launching Pro Tools 7.3.x or 7.4.x.

From the DigiRack Legacy Plug-ins Guide:
    Pro Tools installs the following DigiRack legacy plug-ins in the Plug-ins (Unused) folder:
    • EQ II
    • Dynamics II
    These plug-ins should only be used when opening older Pro Tools sessions. You should use the most current versions of DigiRack plug-ins whenever possible.
The Mod Delay I plug-in is not installed with Pro Tools, but is available on most Pro Tools installer discs in the Additional Files\Unsupported Software\Plug-ins folder or downloaded from the following page:
For information on using the current EQ III and Dynamics III DigiRack plug-ins, see the DigiRack Plug-Ins Guide.pdf in your documentation folder, or download from the website in the Technical Documents section for your version of Pro Tools 7.3.x and 7.4.x.
