Selecting effect presets
Most VST effect plug-ins come with a number of useful presets for instant selection.
To select an effect preset in the Presets browser, proceed as follows:
1. Load an effect, either as a channel insert or into an FX channel.
The control panel for the effect is displayed.
2. Click in the preset field at the top of the control panel.
This opens the Presets browser.
• You can also open the Presets browser from the Inspector (Inserts tab) or the
Channel Settings window.
3. In the Results section, select a preset from the list.
4. Activate playback to audition the selected preset.
Simply step through the presets until you find the right sound. It may be helpful to
set up cycle playback of a section to make comparisons between different preset
settings easier.
5. When you have found the preset that you want, double-click on it (or click outside
the Presets browser).
The preset is applied.
• To return to the preset that was selected when you opened the Presets browser,
click the “Revert to Last Setting” button.
• You can also open the Presets browser by clicking the button to the right of the
preset field and selecting “Load Preset” from the pop-up menu.
Ö The preset handling for VST 2 plug-ins is slightly different, see “About earlier VST
effect presets” on page 246.
The Browser sections
The Presets browser contains the following sections:
• The “Results” section lists the available presets for the selected effect.
