Default What folder do instrument plugins go in?

After getting protools it somehow didn't already have the instruments with it, so I reached out to avid over customer care and asked them to send the plugins to me, although now I'm unsure which folder to put them in.

Just run the installer. Everything will go where it belongs. You can access your instruments and plugins in your My.Avid.com account at any time.

Welcome to the community.

Installers should handle placing the plugins and content, and http://www.avid.com/pro-tools/includ...al-Instruments lists what's included. Keep in mind that Structure is a sample player so you can load different instruments, and Xpand includes drums, keyboards, guitars, strings, synths, percussion...
