Plug-In Presets and Snapshots
You can save and load plug-in Presets files to import, export,
and transfer plug-in settings files.
Snapshots can also be used to automate changes to plug-in
routing and settings.
Presets
Presets are files that you can create to save, load, archive and
transfer custom plug-in settings. You can then create your
own Preset folders to organize Preset files. Preset folders and
files can be transferred using the Filing Page.
To create a custom Presets folder:
1
Go to the Filing page and click the
Transfer
tab.
2
Click the
Preset Folders
icon.
3
Click the
New
button at the left of the screen.
4
Do one of the following:
• To leave the folder at its default name, press Enter.
– or –
• Type a new name and press Enter.
To save a Preset:
1
Adjust the plug-in parameters as desired.
2
Click the
Presets
icon in the Plug-Ins screen.
3
In the Presets window, click
New
.
4
Enter a custom name for the Preset.
To load a Preset into a plug-in:
1
Make sure the presets are already transferred and available
on the current system. (Many plug-ins come with factory pre-
sets that will be installed along with the plug-in.)
2
Select the channel containing the plug-in, and target the de-
sired plug-in (press the Insert Mode switch, or click the plug-in
on-screen).
3
Click the
Presets
icon in the Plug-Ins screen.
4
Single-click a preset name in the Presets list to preview it.
With the Presets list displayed, do any of the following:
• To scroll through the list, press Up or Down arrow keys
on your computer keyboard.
• To load a preset and close the Presets list, double-click a
name in the Presets list.
• Click
Cancel
to close the Presets list without changing set-
tings.
Snapshots
Snapshots can automate plug-in settings, including routing,
and in/out state. (Side-chain routing is not supported in Snap-
shots.) Snapshots can also store and recall Tempo.
Each rack slot in the Plug-Ins screen provides a Snapshot
menu, with shortcuts for common snapshot-related tasks:
• Create a new snapshot
• Add one or more plug-ins to the MIDI/Plug-Ins list, and au-
tomatically re-scope the snapshot to include plug-ins.
• Remove plug-ins from one or more snapshots
Snapshots Containing this Plug-In
Lists all currently loaded
snapshots referencing the plug-in, in sequential order. Choose
a snapshot to load it. (This menu option is useful for targeting
snapshots while editing plug-in racks.)
Create New Snapshot Containing this Plug-In
Adds a new snap-
shot to the snapshot list in which only plug-ins are scoped.
This snapshot is inserted immediately after the currently tar-
geted snapshot, which may not necessarily be the last snap-
shot. The snapshot is named to reflect the plug-in rack posi-
tion, for example: “PI 1-1: Reverb One” is a Reverb One
plug-in assigned to rack 1, slot 1.
Add (or Update) this Plug-In to Snapshot
Adds a plug-in refer-
ence, with current settings, if the currently targeted snapshot
does not already reference this plug-in. If the currently tar-
geted snapshot already references this plug-in, the choice is
Update (see next). If multiple snapshots are selected, this com-
mand changes to “Add Plug-In to Selected Snapshots” for
batch-assignment.
Update this Plug-In in Snapshots
Updates snapshots with cur-
rent settings, if the currently targeted snapshot (or currently
selected snapshots) already references this plug-in.
Remove this Plug-In in Snapshot
Removes reference to this
plug-in in the currently targeted snapshot, or from all cur-
rently selected snapshots.
Presets can be applied to multiple Shows, while snapshots
apply only to the Show file in which they are stored.
Snapshots do not store or recall Presets. Snapshots store
plug-in settings as they were when the Snapshot was cre-
ated or saved.
