How did you move the content, Laura? I couldn’t see a way, but didn’t look too hard I’ll confess.
This is on a Mac
- Go to the location of the existing Roland Cloud/Concerto/Instruments folder. You'll see the instruments you've downloaded and a "rvr_paths.txt" file. If you don't see one, you're going to have to go through this process twice, the first time to create one, and the second to modify it. Or you could create your own txt file and type in the path, it's just a txt file. Let's pretend there's one there.
- Create a new folder path on the drive of your choice: Roland Cloud/Concerto/Instruments and copy the instruments you've downloaded into there (can drag & drop)
- Open the plugin in your DAW, click on the "Options" button on the lower-ish left
- Click "Concerto Instruments path"
- Click on Add New Directory and navigate to the new Instruments folder on the external drive, click Open, then Save.
Note: you do not have to manually type in a semi-colon, the plugin will do it for you. Trying to type it myself (or the path, either), crashed the plugin.
- Delete the instruments from the old location but
do not delete the "rvr_paths.txt" file.
- Un-instantiate and re-instantiate Concerto and hopefully your instruments will show up.
The only way to remove the old path (/Library/Application...) is to edit the text file itself. You can do that and remove the old path and it still works, as long as you leave the txt file in the original location. But you can also leave the old path on there and it works too.

Be an upstander.
