Quick question about preset sharing on LMMS website (Solved)

Anything that doesn't fit into other topics goes here!
Hi all,
I was curious to try out some of the presets people have shared for their instruments. To avoid loading the wrong preset in the wrong instrument, how do I know which presets are for which instruments??

Also, I suppose I need to paste the correct presets in the correct instrument directory, right? Or can they be placed anywhere?


Thanks! --and kudos to LMMS!!

You can simply drag the preset of the sidebar in the Song Editor or Beat + Bassline Editor. The instrument is then automatically detected. So you do not always look for which instrument is the preset.

You have the preset not be drawn into the correct path. Just choose your favorite folder for downloaded presets.

The path to the presets:
C: \ Program Files \ LMMS \ data \ presets

Thanks ACYDE Music! That's a pretty cool function, that the presets will load the correct plugin. :)
