thanks for the help the part where i need help is to locate the expansion folder mentioned in those intsructions. i searched all over my macbook, i cant find the expansion, but it shows in VST inside Reason. i can load the presets so that means they are installed, but where are they in mac?

As mentioned in the instructions, aside from the desktop installer, you can download a separate ZIP file for standalone use. (On macOS, it’s usually saved to ~/Downloads/inMusic/.)
Just unzip it and copy the preset folder to your SD card.

Anyway, be sure to read the instructions and use the inMusic Software Center.
