Where can I find the garageband "Metropolis" synth preset?!

I brought a brand new Macbook Pro. Although I use Logic Pro to record, I noticed Garageband changed their instrument library. I was wondering how to get the old synthesizer presets. Specifically "Metropolis".

We just got a new Mac OS X and GarageBand 10.0.1. One of the software instruments is slightly different and another one says: EXS24 instrument "HipHopKit.exs not found" every time I open the song. The track is there and makes noise but even when playing w/ all the synthesizer adjustments/EQ it's not even close. Can't I download the original sound from GarageBand 09' version 5.1?

I don't remember, where these instruments have been installed in GarageBand '09, but in the older GarageBand '11 I am seeing the "Metropolis" in the Instrument Library in


/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Track Settings/Software/Synth Pads/Metropolis.cst


The "HipHopKit" uses a different format

/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Plug-In Settings/Drum Kits/Hip Hop Kit.pst


I don't know, if you can copy this version from your GarageBand '09 installation.
