Note: If Step 1.3 went smoothly and you Re-Scanned the VST folder Reaper should be able to find the new plugin… If not, try re-scanning or perhaps try restarting Reaper. Step 3.1 Time to try inserting a Virtual Instrument into Reaper using the VSTi and Soundfont we just downloaded. You might choose to make a folder called “Soundfonts” in a location where you keep your loops and other audio resources… perhaps within the Reaper folder or another area on your computer where you keep things organised. Thanks to Falcosoft for sharing the soundfont on this page Step 2.3 Unzip the Soundfont to a folder / directory where you will store your soundfonts

Since I’m working on a computer with no admin rights I had to make a portable install of Reaper in this folder C:\REAPER so I navigated to C:\REAPER\UserPlugins and made a folder called VST. If either of these folders exist or if you have admin privileges on your computer you can unzip the contents of the zipfile to one of the above folders.
