  1. 01

    Keep the collection together

    Extract the archive and preserve the original Fractal Sounds folder structure. The subfolders are part of how the pack is meant to be explored.

  2. 02

    Open Vital's wavetable browser

    Open Vital and click an oscillator's wavetable name. At the bottom of the browser, choose Add Folder.

  3. 03

    Add the complete pack folder

    Select the complete Fractal Sounds collection folder, not an individual WAV. You can also place the pack in a named Wavetables folder inside your Vital user library.

  4. 04

    Confirm the collection

    Reopen the wavetable browser and confirm the collection and its tables are visible. Restart Vital if the newly added folder does not appear immediately.

Before the effects chain

Confirm the whole pack is available.

  • Load several tables directly from the new Fractal Sounds folder.
  • Modulate the wave frame with an LFO or envelope and audition the raw oscillator.
  • Save and reopen a test preset before moving or renaming the source folder.
