Change Rapture Multi Sample folder location

Is there a way to change the Rapture Multisample file location, i.e., move it to another drive, and still have it recognized by Rapture? I know for Dimension Pro there is a Registry hack, but for Rapture there is no registry key for the Multisample folder. Any help would be appreciated.

Just follow the instructions at the Virtual Instruments section of the Project5 Users Wiki site--it has instructions for all of Cakewalk's "Express Engine" synths including Rapture, Dimension, and others: Express Engine Multisample Relocation

Rapture uses the Multisamples key just like Dimension, but it does not exist in a default install and Rapture assumes a default value instead. But if you manually add the key to the registry and supply it a value then the next time you run Rapture it will use that new value instead of its internal default.

The programs are just settings on the synths as well as pointers to the raw sample data (both DimPro and Rapture are sample based, even though they sound remarkably similar to "true" virtual analog synths - even better than many to my ears). So your DimPro/Rapture browser wants to see a certain file path to the programs folder. This is where it can get tricky if you change this without "telling" DimPro or Rapture about it, and this is where I think the registry entries come into play. Once you've changed everything, I think you also need to do an F5 refresh with the DimPro or Rapture browser open. You also need to do this if you reorganize or add sub-folders within your main DimPro or Rapture programs folder.
