What’s the Librarian for?
The Librarian page shows all of the contents of the wavestate native. It’s most useful for editing metadata for your own
sounds, and for importing and exporting data. For selecting sounds, use the pop-up sound browser instead.
1: Filters Panel
The selections here help you narrow down the number of items in the Data List. Set the Data Type, Search, Categories,
and/or Collections as desired. The Filters Panel can be resized by dragging its right edge, to show one, two, or three
columns of Categories and Collections.
2: Data type
The list can show the Performances, Programs, Wave Sequences, Wave Sequence Lane presets, Scales, Effects presets,
and Set Lists on the wavestate native. This menu chooses which type(s) of data are shown in the list.
All Data
shows all
types of data at once.
3: Data List
This shows lists of all the data in the wavestate native database, as filtered by the Search, Data Type, Category, and
Collection settings in the Filters Panel.
Selection
Click on an item in the list to select it for metadata editing or export. Double-clicking on Performances and Set Lists
will also select them for playing.
Select multiple non-continuous items by holding down the command key on MacOS, or the Ctrl key in Windows. You
can also select a range of items by using Shift.
Lock icons: factory data is write-protected
All of the data shipped from the factory is write-protected, including Performances, Programs, Effects presets, and so
on. This is shown by the lock icons in the list and at the top of the Inspector panel. Factory sounds can’t be deleted, and
their original versions can’t be changed, including metadata such as name, author etc. However, you can duplicate them
and then edit however you’d like.
