Selecting and auditioning patches
In the Patch Browser, selecting a patch automatically loads it in the background (i.e. with the Browser dialog still
open). This allows you to preview patches before confirming a selection by clicking OK in the Browser.
D Select a patch and play a few notes to audition the patch.
D For effect patches you can activate loop playback in the sequencer before opening the Patch Browser from the
effect.
Once the Browser dialog is open, you can browse to a folder containing compatible effect patches and step
through them to hear how the patches affect the sound.
q You can also audition patches for any instrument or effect device - not just the device you opened the browser
from! See “Cross-browsing patch files”.
Selecting and auditioning samples
For audio files, samples and REX loops you can use the Audition controls to preview the audio.
This is done in the following way:
D Select the file in the file list and click the Preview - Play button to the right.
The file is played back. During playback, the Play button in the Audition section is relabeled to “Stop” - click this to
stop playback.
D You can also activate the Autoplay checkbox and simply select the file you want to audition.
The selected file is automatically played back. Again, click the Stop button to stop playback.
