AI Synth Dreams is a unique patch set developed by Arctic Fox Studios - some very deep patch design with lots of complex movement and plenty of sound manipulation capabilities via the pre-assigned macro controls in every patch.
Installation Notes:
AI synth dreams uses the latest Hyperion and Theia patch pack import method - the patch set file will be downloaded to the system downloads folder on your computer - all you need to do is open the plugin interface and patches will be automatically installed to the default patches location for each plugin.
Alternatively, if you already have the plugin/app open, as of v1.56 of Hyperion and v1.13 of Theia, you can trigger a patch set import by clicking the refresh button in the plugin patch browser interface.
The patch set file needs to be downloaded to the standard system downloads folder for your currently logged in user account in order for Hyperion or Theia to successfully find it - so make sure to leave the Tracktion download manager set to the default location:
Windows: c:\Users\’account name’\Downloads
Mac OS: Macintosh HD\Users\’account name’\Downloads
Here’s an example of TDM/auto import of the patch set file on Mac OS (M2 Mac MIni):

and some more examples in Windows & Mac OS:
In the Hyperion user interface there is also a manual import button in the browser tools panel (available after clicking on the spanner/tool button).
Hyperion and Theia will not re-import the patch set if a folder of the same name is already present in the main Patches/ folder, so make sure to delete any folders of the same name if you had any previous issues importing the patch set (e.g. an empty folder).
It takes a moment for Hyperion and Theia to refresh the patch browser list - so please wait for the refresh to complete.
