User modules to go in separate folders from Bundled modules

I have recently run into the 'multiple module' problem. [old link]

there appears to be no way back from this other than spending a lot of time taking all my modules into a master OSM . deleting my installation of SM and installing from scratch.

unless I am missing something there seems to be a fatal flaw in the folders full of .hom system right now.

Suggestion if a user drags a module they have created into a default folder such as 'Control' then in fact a new folder called 'Control' is created with a distinct path. Such as -

Synthmaker/UserModules/Control

rather than placing it in alongside the bundled modules. this would make it a lot easier for us to back up, manage and re-install our own creations when bad things happen due to updates of the standard components

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
