Fairlight sound library empty in Davinci Resolve 16

PostThu May 21, 2020 6:28 pm

Hi,
I have installed the Fairlight sound library in a custom folder on my secondary harddrive (not in default directory).
When I go to Sound Library windows in Davinchi Resolve 16, the library is empty. See attached screenshot. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?
Thanks

Type 3 * in the search field to see a list of all of the sound files, or type in a search term to see if there are matches in the library.

It would be awesome if it defaulted to show all if Search Field is empty!

There should be a better way to access audio files. I have 800 files in my audio library, organized in folders, I can't scroll down 800 files every time I need a sound. There must be a way to directly see the folders, maybee in the pro version I don't know.
