    Hello Everyone I just downloaded and installed the Special Edition Library and it is absolutely amazing. Everything on it works great except I am hard time integrating it into Sib 7. I watched the video tutorial and I donloaded the soundsets and hous styles as instructed. But at around 1:45 when it tells you to copy the soundsets into the Sib/Sounds folder, my computer does not have a file even close to that. The Video says the file origin should be. User/UserName/Appdata/roaming/Avid/Sibelius/Sounds, or something very close to that. But I do not have the "AppData" folder. so i tried coppying the soundsets and house styles into the Program(x86)/Avid/Sibelius/SibeliusSounds file and Sib 7 still will not recognize the VSL VST. Can someone PLEASE HELP!

    I've already replied this in the notation forum, but here goes again:

    I'm guessing you are still on Windows XP, in which case the "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming" folder is located at "C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data".

    Note that Windows XP is no longer officially supported since the latest updates of all VSL products.

    Hey I apologize for re posting, I guess I didn't mean to post the first thread. And I am running windows 7. The location you gave me does not exist either. The only place I can find any avid products is is programfiles and programfiles(x86) and pasting in those locations doesn't work out. I'm going nuts trying to figure this thing out.

    UPDATE. So I was able to search the hard-drive and I was able to find the Roaming/Avid/Sibelius7/ file. Now I pasted the HouseStyles where it was supposed to and created the sounds file as instructed to paste the VSL soundset into. Sib 7 now has the VSL house style as an option but when I go to playback devices as instructed, it still will not recognize the vsl. Making progress! I apologize for my inexperience, first time VSL user here.
