The Presets Page

The Presets Page displays information on available Presets. A Preset (also referred as "Instrument") is a set of Virtual Sampler splits. Each split has an associated sample that is played when playing a note inside the split's keyboard range (see "Working with Splits"). The Presets page is also used to arrange, rename, create, delete and maintain Presets (instruments) and to select the audio output method of the split.

Presets (instruments) are displayed in a grid (the green bars in the picture above). You can scroll horizontally and vertically through the grid by using the scrollbar on the right or the cursor keys. The currently selected Preset (instrument)   is displayed with a red outline. If you click onto the selected Preset once again, the grid will switch into edit mode and you can change the name of the Preset (see "Working with Presets").

Below the Presets grid there's a set of buttons and controls that are used to create, delete, maintain and arrange Presets.
