3.3.1 Using Quick Browse
The Quick Browse function in the Sound Tab
The Quick Browse function is activated by clicking on the Magnier Tool next to the le
name. If you click on the Magnier Tool the search query for the currently selected le will be
restored allowing you to choose other results for that query from the Search Result List. By
using the cursor keys on your computer keyboard, you can browse through les in the Search
Result List and they will be instantly loaded if In-Place Auditioning is activated (see below).
3.3.2 In-Place Auditioning
To activate In-Place Auditioning, click the Swap BUtton in the bottom row of the Browser which
will be highlighted in white:

In-Place Auditioning is not only useful to look for an appropriate Sound, Group, FX or
Sample, but can also be very inspiring: with a Pattern playing, browse through your
Library with In-Place Auditioning activated and listen to Sounds and Samples you normally would
not use in that context.
This allows you to listen to Samples, Sounds, Groups, and FX Presets which will be instantly
loaded and can be listened to in context with the rest of your Project while it is playing. To de-
activate this function, just click on the Magnier Tool on the right of the Text Search Field. You
will still be presented with the Search Result List if you click on the Magnier Tool next to the
le name in the respective Tab, but they will not be loaded automatically while browsing them.
