    I would love to know how to get these to work. I have them on a separate NVME 4TB drive. I put the vst3 files into into the standard C Program Files Common Files VST3 and all the Felt Instruments on a separate NVME drive. They appear to load but no sound at all. Any help would be greatlt appreciated.

    Mac or Windows?

    In case of Windows it is pretty easy: When you open the vst for the first time the request "Locate sample folder" appears. Klick on it, direct the plugin to the bespoke folder of each plugin, press ok. You will have to close, re-open the plugin again. And than everything is good to go.

    LET’S TURN PROBLEMS INTO SOLUTION --> www.feltinstruments.com/help

    It’s as simple as 1-2-3. Grab the Felt Instruments Installer, redeem the download code you got after placing an order, and follow the steps on screen to setup the plugin.


    → This guide applies only to the instrument plugins, effects don’t need this procedure.

    You can choose any folder you like — either on your computer’s internal drive, or an external one - but there are a few things you should keep in mind:

    → Never ever move the samples after installing the content - this will break the connection between the sounds and the plugin. Download directly to the location you want to keep the samples at;

    → Cloud sync has to be disabled for this folder, otherwise you won’t be able to stream the samples in real time (which pretty much defies the point);

    → The folder can’t be located in a system-restricted area - this means that folders like App Data, Library, or Applications on Mac, and Program Files on Windows won’t work as the installer won’t be able to access them during setup;

    → Don’t install to a folder you can remove by accident, like your Downloads folder or the Desktop. These two locations are actually blacklisted in the downloader, but if you have other folders you empty on regular basis, please, keep the samples out of these locations;

    If you already downloaded the samples to one of these locations and are experiencing some issues, please, see NO SOUND / CAN’T FIND THE SAMPLES below to learn how to reconnect the samples folder.

    If you need to install the plugin again, simply grab the Felt Instruments Installer and enter the download code for the plugin you’d like to setup. The app will check if the plugin is already installed, and will present you with some extra options.

    If you’re not getting any sound when playing the instrument, it’s most likely because something has changed in the samples folder. You might have moved it to a different location after the setup has been completed. No worries - it’s trivial to fix!

    Grab the Felt Instruments Installer and enter the download code for the plugin you’d like to setup. The app will check if the plugin is already installed, and will present you with some extra options. Click on NO SOUND? and follow the steps described there to re-link the samples folder.

    It’s best to leave the content there for good, and not mess with the samples again.

    I have the same setup and it works great. Are you sure you're setting up the right samples folder when first starting the plugins?
