Ok, I see the problem. Try [declare -path Pd_Spectral_Toolkit -lib pd_spectral_toolkit]. *ugh*
The author uses capitalization for the library folder name (Pd_Spectral_Toolkit) , but the file name and the setup function are all lower case (pd_spectral_toolkit[_setup]). Since the Windows filesystem is not case sensitive, this creates extra weirdness.
Generally, for Pd libraries containg a single binary should, folder and file name should be the same! Please contact the project author and tell them to change the folder name to all lower case.

Thanks for the reply Christof, Hope you have a happy new year.
When I declare on WinX 0.51-3 I get: "load_object: Symbol "Pd_Spectral_Toolkit_setup" not found then a list of all the abstractions I used in that library that ...couldn't create.
Thanks again for the help, Kylee

Same thing. "Pd_Spectral_Toolkit" is distributed as a single binary library, which means you have to load it. If the library also contains abstractions, you also have to add the path. In your case that would be [declare -path Pd_Spectral_Toolkit -lib Pd_Spectral_Toolkit]. --- I really think we finally need a uniform [declare] syntax as proposed by https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/440 <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/440>. The binary format of library should be an implementation detail which the user shouldn't have to care about. For example, Kylee would only need to write [declare Pd_Spectral_Toolkit].

I'm working with fftease~ and Pd_Spectal_Toolkit a bunch lately. "declare -path Pd_Spectral_Toolkit" doesn't seem to work. If I put the full path and right slashes, they disappear when I switch back from edit mode. The only process that works is if I open the extensions object list first.
