For Rapid, the Geodesic Frequencies soundset audio content cannot be installed, as there is no "import" feature anymore in Rapid as far as I can see. I had to manually create a folder and an XML file to get Rapid to recognize the sound content location for Geodesic Frequencies. Here's how:
1. Create new folder in the location where all the XT .pws files , factory .pws files, and Rapid.dll are located (the file path used during installation of Rapid and the other XTs). Give this folder a name, such as "Geodesic Frequencies".
Now you should have, for example: C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Parawave (x64)\Geodesic Frequencies.
2. Move the "Rapid.Geodesic.Frequencies.zip" file into the folder made in step 1. Do NOT unzip the file.
3. Open the Rapid.Geodesic.Frequencies.zip and find the "library.xlm" file. Drag a copy of this file to your desktop. Right click, edit it, look at just the second line, and copy the data after library uuid=XYZ, where XYZ is the long string of letters and numbers. I don't know if this is a unique ID per user, so I don't want to post mine here.
4. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Parawave\Rapid\Audio Locations
5. Create a new file using Notepad or Microsoft Word. Save it as "location_XYZ.xml" if using notepad or "location_XYZ" and save as XML file if using Word. XYZ represents the uuid copied in step 3.
6. Right click this xlm file, click edit, paste the following inside using the location path identified in step 1 (if yours is different, then use that path):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<location path="C:\Program Files\VstPlugins\Parawave (x64)\Geodesic Frequencies\"/>
7. Save the XML file. Close all windows opened during this process. Load up Rapid. It should be good to go. For instance, the preset Lead Sky Chill should load up without any error of missing files.

Omg. Now I know, thank you. I would expect an add library function in the main menu...which in itself is not that obvious (you have to click RAPID) in the top left. A simple "file" or "menu" button would make sense!
At least I feel a little more savvy now with how Rapid file system works

Rapid does indeed make some 'unusual' library/utility functions at times.
But yeah I am with you A file/menu button would have made more sense.
