By selecting any of these tags, say,
Acoustic
, you will narrow your search to this particular
Sub-Type of shakers:
▪
Now imagine that you have loaded an acoustic shaker Sample and want to find a Sample
for another drum instrument, e.g., a tom: You leave the
Drums
tag selected at the top level
of the
TYPES
filter and directly go to the second level, where you select
Tom
instead of
Shaker
. As you select
Tom
, the whole set of Sub-Types underneath (third level) will be re-
placed with the Sub-Types of the
Tom
tag. However, insofar as possible your previous se-
lection will be retained: In our example, both the
Shaker
and
Tom
tags have an
Acoustic
tag below them; since you had selected the
Acoustic
tag below the
Shaker
tag, the
Acous-
tic
tag below the
Tom
tag will be automatically selected as well.
This allows you to quickly find various Samples (even for different instruments) with similar
characteristics — here, an acoustic sound.
Tags for Instrument and Effect Presets: 2 Type Levels and 1 Mode Level
For Instrument and Effect presets, tags can be of two kinds: Type or Mode. You can select
them via the
TYPES
and
MODES
filter, respectively:
▪
The
TYPES
filter works as described above for all other file types, except that only two hier-
archical levels are available. See above for a detailed description.
▪
The
MODES
filter provides an additional level that is independent from the Type levels:
