hi,


i haven't used FM8 for a while.


when i opened it today, it did not load the presets.

i checked, presets are in their respective folders.

i rebuilt the database - to no avail.

i tried to load a preset via "load preset", but all presets (.ksd)are greyed out and can't be selected.

whats going on?

    .ksd must converted to .NFM8

    on pc the path for user presets FM8 is this:

    C:\Users\Computer Name\Documents\Native Instruments\FM8\Sounds

    You can import KSD Sounds (presets)

    FM8 manual page 6
