RAVE vst : Where are located the models on the drive?

I just installed rave as a vst for my daw.

I can see the download model button in the vst but my question is where do they download on the hard drive?
I can’t find that info in the documentation…
I looked at the vst folder that my daw scans and they are not there.

Also how can i remove models from the vst library choices that are shown at the top of the vst gui ?

Yes I also wondered where the models are downloaded to (am on MacOS) - assuming they are torchscript then it would be great to use them in real time in SuperCollider via NN.ar

On MacOS it’s /System/Volumes/Data/Users/[your username]/Library/Application Support/ACIDS/RAVE/ : )

Hello :wave:

Yes that’s it, you need to remove a model from this path on macOS if you want to remove it from the vst list also :wink:

I should have specified… I’m on PC windows 10. Where is it?

how did you get the vst plugin for windows?
The RAVE installer will only give me the standalone application, not the vst, even if I select vst in the installation options.

Are you sure you did not forget to make your DAW scan where the rave vst is?
I downloaded it here, probably same as you did, and i got the vst working.

Btw i found where are installed the models in Windows, they are in :
C/documents and settings/username/application data/ACIDS
I just deleted which one i had in double, restart vst and it clears it, ready to reinstall or manage them

You’ve probably found the VST by now. Just in case you haven’t, I found ‘rave.vst3’ in C:/Program Files/Common Files/VST3. It’s worth mentioning that not every DAW can load VST3 plugins; for example, my version of Ableton Live 8 doesn’t support this format. I’m using Reaper to use Rave as a plugin now.
