So I know that it's possible to use custom/user wavetables in Wavetable by dragging a .WAV file (of the appropriate format) onto the wavetable pane. And if that wavetable is in a folder with other wavetables, you can then step through the folder to try the other wavetables as well.

But there doesn't appear to be any way to permanently add a folder of user wavetables to Wavetable. If I have (for instance) a folder with Plugmon's Analog Anthem wavetables (which are excellent btw) and want to use them in Wavetable, they import fine. But I have to drag one of those wavetables into Wavetable every time I want to use them in a new preset. Is there really no way to "permanently" add custom wavetables so they're already there when I add Wavetable to a new track? Or am I overlooking something?

I would like to know this myself. I was trying to figure it out the other day to no avail. Googling didn't help either......

The built-in wavetables are in (on mac):
/Applications/Ableton Live 11 Suite.app/Contents/App-Resources/Builtin/Samples/Vector/Sprites

I never tried, but in theory if you add yours in here they should appear in Wavetable permanently.

I have tried, it doesn't work. I've even tried renaming my wavetable file to match the factory waves ("Vector_Sprite_User Juna.wav"), which seems like it should work, but that doesn't work either, unless there's some trick I'm missing.

This is a weird oversight, it would be very useful to be able to permanently add user wavetables. And it's not like there isn't already a way to add user wavetables, they just don't persist.

I can confirm this did not work for me either. I also tried using a similar naming convention as the other files to no avail......

Ok, sorry it didn't work.
