 To use the techniques
 described here, you should be comfortable with creating and editing [[midi-controller-files#about_plain-text_files|plain-text files]]. However, the first example includes a link to a //.guru// file you can download and try, even before you understand all the details.
+**Important Note:** when loading a patch from a library, Unify always expects to find the variations-list file in //that library's own Media folder//. This means, if you re-save a patch into a different library, you will need to copy the original variations-list file into that library's //Media// folder (and you may need to create the folder, if there isn't one already). **This is a limitation in Unify v1.6.x.** It may be fixed in a future update, but this is not guaranteed.
