How to Install & Use Tech House Market Project Files in FL Studio

This guide explains how to open and use Tech House Market (THM) third-party FL Studio project files in any modern version of FL Studio.

All Tech House Market FL Studio projects are delivered as FL Studio Zipped Looped Packages, which means setup is plug-and-play.

Important – Read This First

You do NOT need to extract the ZIP file.

FL Studio can open Zipped Looped Packages directly.

You can simply:

• Open FL Studio

• Select File → Open

• Choose the ZIP file

FL Studio will load the project with all samples included automatically

What Is a Zipped Looped Package?

A Zipped Looped Package is an official FL Studio project format that:

• Contains the .flp project file

• Includes all samples used in the project

• Preserves routing, automation, and arrangement

• Prevents missing sample errors

This is the recommended and safest way to share FL Studio projects.

Option 1 – Open the ZIP File Directly (Recommended)

1. Download the project ZIP file from your Tech House Market account

2. Open FL Studio

3. Go to:

   File → Open

   or Drag the ZIP file directly into FL Studio

4. Select the .zip file

✅ The project will open immediately ✅ All samples will load correctly ✅ No extraction required

---

Option 2 – Extract the ZIP File (Optional)

Some users prefer working with extracted folders. This is optional.

1. Right-click the ZIP file → Extract / Unzip

2. Move the extracted folder to:

   Documents → Image-Line → FL Studio → Projects

3. Open FL Studio

4. Open the .flp file normally

Both methods work exactly the same.

If FL Studio Asks for Missing Samples (Rare)

This should rarely happen, but if it does:

1. Go to:

   Options → File Settings

2. Under Browser Extra Search Folders:

   • Add the folder containing the project

3. Reopen the project

FL Studio will automatically locate all files.

Plugins & Compatibility Notes

• Most Tech House Market projects use FL Studio stock plugins

• If a third-party plugin is not installed:

  • It will load as disabled

  • MIDI, automation, and routing remain intact

• You can safely replace missing plugins with your own

Producer Edition or higher is recommended.

Save Your Own Version (Recommended)

Once the project is open:

File → Save As → Rename the project

This keeps the original file intact and allows you to experiment freely.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Opening the project from inside a compressed preview ❌ Moving files after opening the project ❌ Renaming folders after extraction ❌ Opening projects from temporary locations
