Where Does Acon Digital Store User Presets?
Acon Digital plugin and editor presets on Windows and Mac, and how the preset manager reveals real paths.
Last updated
Acon Digital keeps user presets in a Documents relative folder, with factory sets installed beside the plugins. Every product's preset manager can reveal its live folder, which is the reliable answer across versions. Paths drift between releases; the reveal button does not.
Migration is one folder copy. Factory content reinstalls itself, so only the user tree matters. Reload preset lists after moving or new sets stay invisible until rescan.
Where Acon Digital stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Acon Digital
User presets root; each product keeps its own subfolder. Use any plugin's reveal in Explorer option to confirm the live path on your version. Factory sets live under Program Files with the plugins.
~/Documents/Acon Digital
Same Documents relative layout as Windows, so cross platform preset moves are plain copies. Confirm via the preset manager reveal option if a major update reshuffled things.
Frequently asked questions
Where are my Acon Digital presets?
Use the preset manager's reveal or explore option in any Acon plugin. It opens the live folder directly, which beats memorizing versioned paths that shift between releases.
How do I move Acon presets to a new PC?
Copy the Acon Digital documents tree to the new machine. Factory sets reinstall with the products, so only user presets need moving. Rescan or reload preset lists afterward.
Do presets transfer between Windows and Mac?
Yes, the same Documents relative layout on both. Plugin formats differ (VST3/AU/AAX) but preset files themselves transfer across platforms without conversion.
