I am working with a drum programmer and since he's on Windows, and doesn't have an iPad, I'm having him create the sequences on the Windows version of Drum Computer, and I am reviewing them on the Mac version. The sequences include his own drum samples, so I want to not only move the preset, but make sure that the samples properly go with them. Can someone give me the steps to get the Presets properly to the iPad along with the samples.

Hi kendoori,
once iCloud synchronization for DrumComputer iOS is enabled in the Settings Tab under Advanced Preferences choose iCloud, presets you save in the DrumComputer iOS version are automatically synced to your iCloud Drive.
To share a preset from your DrumComputer iOS version to your computer, you’ll need to drag and drop or copy/paste the preset from:
iCloudDrive/DrumComputer/Presets/User
into
~/Documents/Sugar Bytes/DrumComputer/Presets/User
To share a preset from your DrumComputer Desktop version to your iPad, you’ll need to drag and drop or copy/paste the preset from:
~/Documents/Sugar Bytes/DrumComputer/Presets/User
into
iCloudDrive/DrumComputer/Presets/User
The content for both devices will follow the same folder structure.
Which means the global presets are in iCloud Drive/DrumComputer/Presets/User
whereas your own samples should be in iCloud Drive/DrumComputer/Samples/User
So just make sure to share it by saving it into the respective folder.
Please note that creating and then reading out a subfolder is technically not possible.
Best,
Nadine
