XLN Audio provides a separate installer for Addictive Drums at www.xlnaudio.com/install. To access the installer, you will need your Addictive Drums Product Key.If you have installed Addictive Drums 2 prior to installing SONAR or any other Cakewalk software installed, it may have installed to a different directory, such as C:\Program Files\Steinberg\Vstplugins, instead of the standard directory of C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Vstplugins. We recommend running a Windows search on your computer for Addictive Drums 2.dll to locate where the plug-in component is installed.When the plug-in location has been found, you can add this custom path to SONAR's VST Scan Paths list under Edit > Preferences > File - VST Settings. Click the Scan button so SONAR will scan this new directory for the addition of Addictive Drums 2.
