Interesting idea.

Common? I’m not sure. I don’t have two active versions of the program; I have the Audiophile program on an internal SSD drive, and the RealTracks and RealDrums on a fast internal hard drive.

I run patches on that setup all the time, but every once in awhile I plug in and patch the supplied PG Music USB drive. This requires, as you say, remembering and switching drive assignments.

Maybe in Preferences we could specify drive locations for everything (for both main and secondary setups). Then specify main or secondary on the install.

This would be preferable to having to navigate to the Custom folder in Preferences for both RealTracks and RealDrums.
