Saturn 2 Presets
Normally, a FabFilter plug-in will install its factory presets automatically when you run it for the first time. If the plug-in has failed to do so, and you only see an empty preset menu, please check the following:
First of all, open the plug-in in your DAW, click on the (empty) preset menu button and choose Options > Restore Factory Presets.
If this doesn't work, there is probably a permissions issue that prevents the plug-in from installing the factory presets. Open Finder and navigate to the /Users/<your user name>/Library/Audio folder, select the Presets folder and press Cmd+I. In the Sharing & Permissions section at the bottom, make sure you have 'Read & Write' permissions.
After you've corrected the permissions, open the plug-in again and choose Options > Restore Factory Presets again if needed. All presets should now be available.
Since OS X 10.7 (Lion), the user Library folder is marked as hidden by default. To make it visible again in Finder, open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities) and enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
If after this the presets still do not appear, you can install them manually. You can download them here:
www.fabfilter.com/support/downloads/factorypresets.zip
After downloading, please unzip and move them to the following folder:
Mac: User/Library/Audio/Presets/FabFilter/
Windows: My Documents\FabFilter\
If there is no such folder in the above location, please create one manually. Please note the 2 capital F's in FabFilter.
After this, reopen your DAW and they should appear in your plug-in.
Cheers,
I'm having the same issue with Mojave: my read/write-credentials are correct but Saturn 2-installer doesn't seem to install the presets.
Could you reupload the factory presets, please?
Thank you in advance.

Cheers,
FabFilter plugins don't install presets during installation on my High Sierra 10.13.6
Please, send me an archive with presets. Thanks.
