can't seem to get screenshot into the post.....sorry...

try taking one of the presets and putting it into some folder where the presets are working... do you see that preset then?

I am not sure I know what the Massive wave file, FM8 etc are, but these sound more like waveforms than presets....if that's the case you won't hear them unless you use them in a patch.. and these go in a different location than the presets.... email support at u-he... I am sure they will set you on the right path.

If you're into pads you should check out Joseph Hollo's Padsheaven. Amazing soundset, and quite cheap too. http://rekkerd.org/review-joseph-hollos ... for-zebra/

I think you're right zvenx. I see FM8 and Massive and Stringmachine OSC presets in the corresponding section of PatchLib.
So what you get there are oscillator wavetable presets to be used to create complete Zebra2 sound presets.

that makes sense.
At first I thought he was using the special melting GUI edition (apologies), but once he give more details I do think it is the osc stuff he has put in the wrong place and is trying to load.

I'm not sure how up-to-date the public version of Zebra manual is, but the latest beta version includes this on page 6:

Windows
-------
Presets: ...\VstPlugins\u-he\Zebra2.data\Presets\Zebra2\
MSEG/OSC: ...\VstPlugins\u-he\Zebra2.data\Modules\

Hope that helps

I think xoxos' Clearsynth is pretty good for that, it's a very simple synth, and the presets are basically a tour of every basis synthesis technique. You could learn it in a few days and I feel it'd feed into your ability at Zebra (just as experience with Zebra feeds into other, less complex/versatile synths I use).

****Update****

Solved issue...Piet W waveforms and other waves needed to be in the folder here ~/User/Name/Library/Application Support/u-he/Zebra2/Modules/Oscillator/ ..... Waveforms...Oscillators!!!!....duh.....doh.....oops

they showed up!!!! Of course they did....I have learned and had to explain that these were just "waveforms" not actual presets...so I told them time to break out the manual and get programming!!!!

I think what threw every one was the file extension...it makes it appear that the "waveform" is a preset.

Thanks for your input!!!!
