Where does Sampletank store user MULTIs?

I can locate the factory multis but not user created ones...

Mine are in .../Documents/IK Multimedia/SampleTank 4/Multis/DarkStar

If you click on the Folder field here it will open up a browser to the location.

I entered a folder name before saving. A sub-folder was created in "Multis" and the user preset saved there. Then the sub-folder appears in the Multi Selection drop-down menu.

cool thanks - I was looking in the totally wrong place haha! I was looking in the program files section Sampletank, not User Docs.

Supplementary question please:

Is it possible to re-locate this folder to a non-dynamic (IE non-system) storage drive?

Well, it is within the "My Documents" folder, and has to be there. But my "My Documents" is on F:.

thanks - when I tried to save a user multi to another location (within ST4) it didn't appear to allow any other directory though? All it allows is that default one?

Is that your OS system drive, or a separate data drive?

It is a separate disk partition. Physically it it on the same disk hardware as the OS partition (C:/).

I have done that so I can back up my OS disk image separately from the Documents" disk image.

thanks. Yes that is what I'd like to do but in my case ST4 give no option to save anywhere else other than the system my document folder.

Thanks for you help here. I'll need to experiment a bit :)
