Presets

Like the Settings window, the Presets browser is a collapsible “child” window that appears along the left side of the SpectrumWorx interface. As you’d expect, it is used to search for, load, save and manage the many factory presets, along with any you might want to create for yourself.

The Presets browser

The directory where you keep your presets is displayed at the top of the window.

Save, Save as and Delete buttons are available just below the preset location. When you elect to Save as your own preset, you’ll be provided with an opportunity to give it a name. Use the Save button to overwrite an existing preset, which you need to select first. Use the Delete button to remove any existing or selected preset that you no longer want to have available to you.

The Ignore external audio option allows you to skip the loading of external audio files from other peoples’ presets, or the saving of the currently loaded external sample into your presets. This is useful if you want to test existing presets with your own audio sample.

The preset list shows the preset files and the subfolders available in the current folder for easy navigation. Single clicking on a preset name automatically loads the preset. A double click or a press of the enter key gives you the opportunity to rename a preset.

There is a description field just below the preset list. This is a place where you can write (just single click inside the field) or read descriptions of, or comments about, selected presets. This goes a long way towards helping to keep all of the presets manageable.
