One thing I hate about the Reason browser is there is no ability to right click on an item and reveal its location in Finder like I can say with the Ableton browser. So I want to install a sound bank for The Legend RE but can't find where to put it - there seems to be a default place for Rack Extension presets but I can't find where that is located to add stuff to it.

Thanks I had a look in those places but nowhere seems to have the sound banks location for Rack Extensions.

The bitch here is that there are two Library maps showing on macs, one of them is hidden because it contains system files. However, you should be able to locate it by going to your Macintosh HD -> user-> your name-> Library

From here go to Application support -> Propellerhead Software -> Rack Extension

If you end up with this map showing a “Soundbank” map only, you are in the wrong Library map.

If your library map does not show up in your user/home directory, check this out:

Btw: The banks are embedded in dedicated file formats, so it is not like you can manage the banks in Finder.

Oh I found a bunch of folders but as you state no way to add a bank. What a stupid system.

Ye. Ain´t too bright from a user perspective. If you want any kind of order of your own, it seems you have to use the option of makings favorite folders in the browser. They can be renamed to your liking, but I guess you know all that already. I have one list of favorites containing the best from my REs + my own stuff, and it works for all practical purposes. Though I would have preferred to manage the RE folders instead.
