Most presets you download from Splice will show up in your plugin’s preset browser automatically, in a folder named Splice.
Sylenth1 and Spire are the exceptions: you load those presets from the plugin’s menu.
Splice INSTRUMENT works differently: you download and load presets inside the plugin itself.
Click your plugin below:
Splice INSTRUMENT
You download and load Splice INSTRUMENT presets inside the plugin. You don’t need to manage any files.
Open the Discover tab and download a pack or individual presets.
Click Load next to a preset.
Presets you’ve already downloaded are in the My Library tab. Learn more

Windows: C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Splice\Astra\Presets\From Splice
This means it will also show up in Astra's preset browser automatically - you don't need to do anything else to start using your downloaded presets in Astra. You can open them up through the "from Splice" folder in Astra's preset browser:

Tip: To browse all your Splice presets inside Spire, load several presets into a blank bank (Menu → Select Bank → init), then use Menu → Save Bank and Menu → Import Bank.
Still not seeing your preset?
Restart your DAW. Most plugins check for new presets only when they open.
If you moved your plugin’s preset folder, Splice saves presets to your main Splice folder instead. Move them into the plugin’s preset folder.
Serum users: see Fix for Serum presets not showing up in Serum.
