The Sound Browser

Different commands can be applied to a user pack once it has been selected. These are revealed
by clicking on the ellipsis icon located to the right of the pack name at the top of the browser. A
pack can be renamed by choosing the
Rename
command. A copy of a pack and its content is
created by using the
Duplicate
command. The name of this new pack is entered in the pop-up
window which appears after choosing this command. A pack is deleted by selecting the
Delete
command. Note that when a pack is deleted, it disappears from the browser and its entire content
is not available anymore. A safety copy of the deleted pack is created however by
Ultra Analog
VA-3
so it is always possible to recuperate a pack which has been deleted by mistake. The backup
copy is accessed by using the
Show Packs Folder
command as explained above. At the same level
as the
Packs
folder one finds a
Private
folder. The safety copies are located in the
Packs/Deleted
folder below the
Private
folder. In order to access a deleted pack again from the browser, copy it
from the
Deleted
folder to the
Packs
folder.

Managing Sounds
A sound in a list is selected by clicking on its name or anywhere on its associated line in the
list. It then becomes highlighted. Selecting a sound loads the corresponding preset data into the
synthesizer and changes the current sound selection. A list of commands which can be applied to
a selected sound appears by clicking on the ellipsis icon appearing to the right of the sound name.
The
Add to Pack
command allows one to create a copy of the sound in a user pack. When this
command is selected, the list of existing user pack is displayed and there is also the option to create
a new one. Another way to create a copy of a sound in another pack is to use the
Copy
command,
click on the name of the destination user pack and then by right-clicking in the sound list of this
pack and using the
Paste
command.
Information for individual sounds is shown by clicking on the
Show Sound Details
command
which opens the
Sound Information
display box. This includes the name of the sound, its cate-
gory, tone quality, and its creator. All these fields can be modified directly from this information
window. There is also a
Notes
field which is useful for entering a description or playing instruc-
tions. Note that the fields in this window can be edited for many sounds at once when using multiple
selection of sounds.
A multiple selection consisting of adjacent sounds in a list is obtained by clicking on the name
of the first sound to be selected and then, holding down the
Shift
key on the computer keyboard,
and the clicking on the name of the last one. A non-adjacent multiple selection is obtained by
holding down the
Ctrl/Command
computer key and clicking on the name of the different sounds to
be selected. All sounds from a list can also be selected at once by using the
Select All
command
from the command drop-down menu.
A sound can be copied to another pack by selecting it and using the
Copy
command. This
command is available from the command drop-down menu or by right-clicking on the selected
sound. The destination pack is then selected by clicking on its image and the sound copied by
using the
Paste
command. A sound can also be moved to another pack by selecting it and then
dragging and dropping it onto the image of a pack. Be careful however as this command, unlike
