Big thanks to the uploader. Still, a few questions:
has this been checked for timebombs?
will it erase my "favourite presets" folders?
will the presets already installed on previous versions work?

1: Maybe RET did a good job, if not u get a timebomb, someday! Its released since 5min!
2: Backup your favs and test.
2: Didn't understand this question completely.

So best way is wait till other users report back here and there. Then take your choice! ^^

About the third question, what I meant was:
Will the presets directory be deleted during the new installation?

All in all, I don't care about the first case - as you said, I can just wait and see what happens and if there is a timebomb I can install another cracked version.

Still, I wouldn't like to have to find and install all the presets I have been using, or lose my "favourites" folder.

If i'm not wrong V.R. using another presets directory then R2R/RET on Windows.
Don't know about the Mac side. There lives dragons and trolls!

Thanx, I'm on Windows 10, so I'll check it out.

In any case, the presets are here:

C:\ProgramData\U-he\Zebra2.data

On mac: /Library/Application Support/u-he/Zebra2.data

or: /Users/Your Name/Library/Application Support/u-he/Zebra2.data
(replace "Your Name" with your login name)

I suppose it depends if your install is from V.R. or R2R/RET.
With older versions, my presets was in my Documents folder.

Anyway, backup your presets folder(s) before doing anything!

EDIT: corrected.

Since lastest official releases, u-he avoids %ProgramData% (due to permission issues in certain cases), it's the reason why - by default, proposed folder is user's Documents instead.

I can't say for certain, but unlike with the recent RET Diva install, looks like all my presets are there. I had quite a few libraries before, and would appear they're all still there. I didn't have any custom presets though.

quote by mylonojrWill the presets directory be deleted during the new installation?


...you... don't know how to copy or backup that folder, to make sure you don't lose it if something happens?
  Member 5.09.2013 1 202

Yeah, I know how to do that, all right. What about the "Favorites"?
Sed Quis Custodiet Ipsos Custodes?
  Resident 7.07.2021 587
+221
I think I found them, I searched and this file:

C:\ProgramData\u-he\Zebra2.data\PresetDatabase\Zebra2_Presets.presetsdb

is a SQL database file indexing all the presets and where they are, IMAHO this is the most pertinent way to store the user favorites, of course I can be wrong, but I Hex-amined (lol) all the other txt/xml files in the same folder and found no trace of my own favorites.

There could be a way to be absolutely sure: to use a proggie which is able to decode and read these kind of database file, unfortunately I dunno any.

I use also the favorite system all the time, and I regret it is not implemented everywhere, in all plugins.

Stupid question, Earth33, you can delete this .presetsdb file, I suppose it will be reconstructed on next instance of Zebra² plugin, aren't? (but perhaps "Favorites" will are lost).

Confirmed, the favorites are saved in this file:

C:\ProgramData\u-he\Zebra2.data\PresetDatabase\Zebra2_Presets.presetsdb

Proof:

In this 1st screen capture, you will see my actual Zebra 2 presets favorites (at the left of some preset names, you'll see a colored point: it means I marked these sounds as my favorites.

Then I removed the file Zebra2_Presets.presetsdb from its folder, and relaunched Zebra2.

The *.presetsdb file is automatically reconstructed, but as you will see in this second screen capture, my favorites are gone (there is no more colored point at the left of some preset names)

Then I copied back the original Zebra2_Presets.presetsdb where it belongs, replacing the reconstructed file.

The result, as you can see in this third capture, is that my favorites are back again!

Conclusion: if it's useful for you, always do a back up of the file:
C:\ProgramData\u-he\Zebra2.data\PresetDatabase\Zebra2_Presets.presetsdb before installing a new version.

But now my brain has to make a choice, oh no, RET or VR or VR or RET :)
Which is the best? Do I know? Do you know? Does anyone know? :)

RET's 1st version is VR 's FInal version.

RET manufactured the license file that will work as long as you don't update the synth, V.R. half-assedly (or not, more and more people say it's fine over the years) tear the license checks out. Decide for yourself, but it's RET.

i have had no problems with vr's u-he releases, as far as timebombs go - haven't seen any. i also like that v.r. includes a ton of presets in their installers (500meg worth of extra on this zebra one)
make music, not walls.

True about the presets.
If only they did not password their installer, or lately use the newer version for which i have no unpacker - LOL!
