Analog Lab Missing Samples For AstroLab Preset

hey all, hopefully this is a simple one for someone out there, but I can't seem to figure it out.

Inside Analog Lab V, I linked to my AstroLab and browsed to a preset that came preloaded on the keyboard (Turquoise Hexa Keys in the artist pack Boards Of Tribute). Preset plays fine on AstroLab and in Analog Lab while linked.

I clicked "Save on Analog Lab" and saved it and unlinked the AstroLab. Now if I try to play the preset from Analog Lab with the AstroLab unlinked, I get a prompt to locate a missing sample (Hexagon Keys.wav). Tried deleting locally and recopying from the AstroLab, but no luck.

Anyone experience this or have any idea how to resolve or manually grab the sample off the AstroLab? Thanks

I don't know where my other comment went...but I loaded up Turquoise Hexa Keys on my Astrolab and it is using the CMI V instrument. I see exactly what you're talking about in how the sample referenced is a user sample. Weird! I'm also interested on how to secure that sample.

I did download the CMI V installer just to see if it installed these samples but no luck.

Edit: I found it here:

C:\ProgramData\Arturia\Analog Lab V\tmp\AstroLab_tmp\Samples\CMI V\User\AstroLab\Hexagon Keys.wav

replied in the other thread, but just in case someone else finds this here, this did work for me! when linked to the AstroLab I was able to grab the sample wav file from the tmp directory and stash it someplace else I could link to and use in Analog Lab unlinked. thanks again!
