    Question: In which folder are self-created arpeggiator *.mid files saved? So the “Import” and “Export” mid files!

    I guess in windows, The *mid files are saved to a location in any directory you can select basically yourself. You can recall these from the same directory whenever needed :)

    But IMHO if convenience is what you want then save them as 'preset' within the NEXUS ARP Preset folder. You can easily recal them by clicking the preset icon on the NEXUS ARP menu

    Thanks for your answer, I received an answer from the Nexus 5 support team.

    All user saved presets/samples are in:
    C:\Users\Public\Documents\reFX\nexus

    I have a question regarding the cracked version.
    I followed the installation instructions, chose the path and everything was going smoothly until I opened it.
    "The library for Nexus isn't installed." Even though I copied the files into the library.
    In the instructions it says that I can change the Nexus library folder in settings.json however I don't have such a file.
    What do I do in this situation?
    (Also uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help)

    While installing Nexus 5 you are asked for the directory where to install the library. That directory will contain the Nexus library folder where you will need to place your (Nexus 5 factory library/expansions )i.e the Nexus presets samples etc. There also will be the library update locator.exe. Just click it. It will link that folder to the plugin. So that the plugin will be able to detect that particular folder containing the samples and presets. :wink:

    Hope it helps :thumbsup:

    I tried to find it but there is just no file called library update locator.exe, in fact the are no more .exe files besides the install.exe and uninstall.exe. I tried deleting the Library folder but whenever I try to install Nexus it locks the option to change the Library folder and even though everything is installed I can't see any presets. I'm starting to think that it has to do with the fact that I had Nexus 4 installed and maybe somehow they got mixed up (idk if that's even possible). When scanning for the Nexus plugin in FL it just says Nexus like it did when I had Nexus 4. Also it's not highlighted as a new plugin it's just there and there's nothing I can do about it.

    Most of the errors are user error and installing new over old, usually leading to unexpected results with the old file remnants messing everything up.

    First, back up your files.

    Uninstall Nexus 5 and then delete everything that has to do with reFX - Nexus.
    Then restart your PC and install Nexus 5, then copy the library from version 4 into the Nexus 5 --> C:\reFX folder.

    Go to C:\Users\Public\Documents\reFX\nexus
    Find settings.json, open with notepad and edit.

    Edit:
    the two slashes are mandatory \\ Example: "library_folder": "C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\reFX\\nexus\\NEXUS library",
