i'm trying to load m4l preset (.adv) and drum racks (.adg) from my user library

i drag the files from my user library to the push library and can see them in the browser. the m4l device reports a ".amxd" file cannot be found

all my drum racks load without samples. i also transferred all the sample files to subdirectories in the Push>User_Library>Samples>imported folder. feel like i'm missing something (and also why is this so clunky!)

here it is explained and works for me

When you import samples or M4L devices into your Push User Library, make sure to put them in the exact same folder structure than the one in your Live User Library. Create identical folders if needed.
e.g if in Live your sample is in User Library > Samples > My sick samples > sickest one-shots
then create this > My sick samples > sickest one-shots in your Push and copy your sample in here.
I hope it makes sense.

It works just like if you would a synchronised User Library on 2 different computers. Live is referencing paths, so just make sure the path is always the same on every machine.

how does this make sense? if I do "collect and save", i would assume that everything is saved so it can be found automatically. this is pretty cumbersome
