    Hello.
    When I install Synthwave 1.0.0., it automatically goes to Program files (86)/Common Files/Toontrack and all my other soundbanks disappear from EZKeys and EZKeys 2, because they are in another custom location. I am left only with Synthwave. When I uninstall it, both EZKeys versions find their paths to the old soundbanks and I have them again. How can I use Synthwave without losing my other soundbanks or having to move them to Program files (86)/Common Files/Toontrack...

    Thank you.

    Greetings
    Manually move the Synthwave content to your custom location and you should be fine. You can move Toontrack's content to any location...simply point to it in the menu settings. Hope this helps.

    You should just be able to copy the EZK-SYNTHWAVE folder (that's an educated guess, I don't have it) over to where all your other soundbanks are.

    Thank you for answering.
    Relocating the Synthwave soundbank to the folder with all other banks does not change much. EZKeys again has only Synthwave, but this time without sound. There has to be a way to point the installation to some custom folder. Or fool EZKeys there are no banks, so it offers to search for them.

    You don't need to use the installer at all, just copy the folder over and it should work. That's what I do for all my EZX kits and EZK expansions and they work fine.

    In EZkeys, top left, click Settings, then Library/Paths and you can tell the plugin to look anywhere you want for content there. You first move the folder wherever you want, with EZkeys plugin closed. Then go to Library/Paths again, click Locate Folder and then browse to your content. You can put the sub-folders all in one main folder, even on an external drive.

    @clone I don't have Library/Paths :)) . Neither in EZK, nor in EZK 2.
    So I resolved the issue Yuri's way, albeit I did it in a bit more complicated way.
    Cheers to all!
