How to add MORE file manager shortcut locations?

Hi. I would like to add more quick Shortcuts to several different locations on my various drives to the File Manager short cuts (as seen here):

I have already added one location mapped to MY MUSIC, and another to MY RECORDINGS via the Program Settings:

As I have many commercially licensed soundpools, loops, and sound effects on several drives, how can I add more quick shortscuts, without having to navigate each and every time to pull a file in?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. :)

@Film.Maker It might help to create some symlinks on your C drive. For example, open the command prompt and enter

mklink /J "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Soundpools\NameOfMySoundpoolFolder1" "E:\Path\to\Soundpool\Folder1\"

This will create the junction "NameOfMySoundpoolFolder1" (Name it like you want) on C that points to the folder on E. The programs won't notice the difference. The program will "think" the files are stored in C. Repeat this for all folders you want to use. Then simply add C:\Users\Public\Documents\Soundpools\ in the program settings.
