Where Does u-he Diva Store Presets?
Diva splits factory Local presets from User presets in Documents on Windows and the Audio Presets trees on Mac.
Last updated
Diva keeps two preset roots. Local holds the 1200 plus factory presets and stays pristine. User holds your creations and third party soundsets. Recent versions put both under a Diva.data folder in Documents on Windows and the Audio Presets trees on Mac.
That split decides every install. Drag and drop targets User automatically, which beats hand copying. Never edit Local directly. A botched factory edit survives updates and confuses every later reinstall.
Where u-he Diva stores this, by platform
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\u-he\Diva.data\Presets\Diva
Factory Local plus UserPresets trees here. Save new work to User, leave Local alone. Preferences and themes sit in Support beside them.
~/Library/Audio/Presets/u-he/Diva
Local factory tree plus user tree under your own Library. NKS presets live separately in Application Support. Use Go to Folder to reach either path.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install Diva soundsets?
Drag the .uhe-soundset file anywhere into the Diva window. It lands in the User folder on its own. Manual copies go in UserPresets, never Local. Refresh the browser directory view when a new set stays invisible.
How do I move Diva presets to a new computer?
Copy the UserPresets tree plus the favourites database with the DAW closed. Local factory content reinstalls with the plugin. Keep the Diva.data folder name intact or the plugin builds a fresh empty one beside it.
