# Installation Make sure you have downloaded all three parts: * The Art Conductor archive * The Snapshot archive * The Presets archive Before you can install the software, you’ll need to unzip it. Please use the onboard tools of macOS or, for instance, 7-Zip on Windows for this task. This is important to note, as the sheer number of files in this archive can result in errors depending on your choice of unzipper app. Unzipping the Art Conductor archive creates an “Art Conductor Cubase” folder with all the content. To load a map, open the Expression Map editor in Cubase or Nuendo and press the *Load* button. In the past, many have asked where to install the maps – there is no Cubase folder where they need to go, so you can put them wherever you want. Also, as it turns out, there is no easy way to install many maps in one go. #### Snapshots and Preset Files The **Snapshot** and **Preset** archives can be stored anywhere you like. You only need those files when working with a few libraries that require special configurations. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
