9.2.1.4 SOUND BROWSER – PROPERTIES
The sound browser lists all installed sounds by instrument categories, which are represented by the
tabs shown on top of each sound list. By default, list entries are sorted by ascending internal sound
numbers of the active instrument category (tab). This ordering can be changed by checking one of
the options available under “Sorted by”.
The alternative ordering options are:
• Instrument Name
• Category ➔ Cat = AC (Acoustic), EL (Electronic), PR (Processed) or FX (Sound Effects)
Tabs and contents below the sorting options vary depending on the selected Source. The Sound
Browser separates installed factory sounds (Internal) from imported user sounds (Import). Check the
corresponding box to follow the specialties of each source in the next sections.
9.2.1.4.1 SOURCE – INTERNAL
Activating the Internal check box under Source will display the following instrument sound catego-
ries (tabs):
Sound Categories (Source = Internal)

Tap one of the category names to browse the contained sounds.
9.2.1.4.2 SOURCE – IMPORT
Activating the Import check box under Source will display all sounds imported via the Import Tool
(See 13.5 Import Tool on page 158). The Tab “Wave” contains all imported single layer wave samples
(created by users), whereas all other tabs contain imported multi-layer sound banks downloaded
from the GEWA Cloud. Sounds downloaded from the Cloud will be filed under the correct Instrument
category automatically during the import (See 13.6 Shop on page 163).

9.2.1.4.3 ASSIGNING SOUNDS – SOUND GROUPING
The assignment of sounds via the sound browser is straight forward (double tap a list entry). However,
there are some features built into the File Browser that allow for batch assignment to all components
at the same time. The main feature is called Sound Grouping.
