Let’s quickly get to adding Vst instrument in Fl Studio

1) Before importing Vsts, there are few things to do;

i) Create a custom Vst folder On your desktop(you can create it anywhere if you know what you are doing, if you don’t know, then follow me along).

Vst’s Own Installer

ii) Run the Vsts own installer, it should be included with your package e.g kontakt.exe, Spire.msi, when running Vsts own installer you should be asked to select the install location during the process. Select the folder you created.

iii)For plugins without installer, copy the files including the .dll(e.g Guitar mik.dll) file to the folder you created.

Note i) If you downloaded a Vst plugin that requires extraction (e.g Nexus.rar that contains only .dll), just extract them to the custom folder and make sure they are in .dll, if it is not in .dll, open the folder that came along with the file and you should see .dll extension in the folder.

ii) If you downloaded a Vst plugin with own installer that requires extraction (e.g Nexus.rar that contains an EXE format), extract the file > run the installer and when asked to select the install location, select the folder you created.

Download 7zip extractor if you don’t have one, it is completely free.

Point Your Custom Folder Location Into Fl Studio
