[Answered] Anyone know where custom AD2 Map Presets get saved?

I have been modifying a drum map internal to AD2 this evening and saved it as a custom map. It shows up in "Map Maps" within the AD2 host just fine, but I am curious where the actual file got saved. Does anyone know offhand where these get saved?
 
Edit: Windows search function stinks... the answer was so obvious it is embarrassing... They get saved in "C:\Users\[User]\Documents\Addictive Drums 2\[user #] folder"  I was digging in the wrong places and looking under XLN Audio folders, sheesh.

    DOH! It is actually saved in the most obvious of places (I updated the OP), which is in the "Addictive Drums 2" folder inside of "My Documents"

    You can open the path in the AD2 UI. I've made repeated attempts asking XLN to provide us a user defined path for this so far no joy.

    I wish Sonar Platinum used the standard Win7 location (My Documents) instead of the root of my C: drive for its Content and Project folders. It defaulted on installation to the root, without offering me the chance to move it. I know I can change that via Preferences, but now that it's installed and working, I figure it's just best to leave the paths set to the defaults.

    You can change the location of you Cakewalk Content. I have separate drives for that. You could just copy (and then delete, for safety). The next time SONAR opens, you will be asked for the location of your Cakewalk Content folder. Just browse, and select. You can also do this in SONAR preferences. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=9f3ad2706eba5d86!1229&authkey=!ANz1PyqE68jRvkQ&v=3&ithint=photo%2cjpg
