    Hello forum. I've recently downloaded Massive and Absynth, but I can't seem to find the .dll files for them? Any ideas?

    usually c:\programs\native instruments\whatever product u installed\

    some ni installers neither care nor ask for your vst folder...

    Weird. My NI installers for programs/plugins have always asked where I want to install. It's the Reaktor ensemble installers (Rounds, Spark, Prism, Monark, etc) that don't but that's because they aren't VSTs with .dlls they're .ens for Reaktor and they usually default to the Reaktor library.

    Whatever. The default locations are
    C:\Program Files\Native Instruments\VSTPlugins 32 bit
    C:\Program Files\Native Instrumetns\VSTPlugins 64 bit

    If you're using an older installer it might be
    C:\Program Files\Vstplugins\Native Instruments
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Vstplugins\Native Instruments

    Use this to locate all your NI plugins, unnecessary duplicates and to relocate them all to a user defined location

    Maybe sherlock is refering to a style of pipe, that would explain why he cant find the .dlls

    If that's the case I suggest holding off on using absinthe or you'll be seeing VSTs with your eyes closed.
