Preset Browser
The preset browser provides a range of functionality to help you find the sound you want for your project efficiently.
Filters
The filters on the left allow you to browse by ‘Expansion’, ‘Genre’, ‘Focus’, ‘Instrument’ and ‘Character’.
Expansions are collections of presets and sounds which are themed around a certain genre or mood.
Clicking a filter will adjust the other visible filters based on what you have clicked.
Filters types can be collapsed if you prefer to not browse by a particular category. You can do this by clicking the chevron on the right hand side or clicking the filter name (such as ‘Focus’ in our example below).
Selected filter buttons can be de-selected by clicking its relevant icon, or, clicking the cross on the right hand side (see below).
Preset Management
Presets can be deleted, edited and saved using these controls.
The ‘User’ and ‘Audio Imperia’ icon allows you to filter by Factory / Audio Imperia made presets and User created presets.
After presets are updated in the /Library Data/Presets folder, you can rescan presets to make them show up in the browser. Rescanning presets will take a few minutes, but will not needed to be ran again.
