Info and details
The Info section in the left corner can show Song/ReFill splash images and the
Details section will show information about the item currently selected in the file
and folder list. Exactly which information is shown depends on the file type. For
example, samples or REX files contains information about the file format and
length of the selected file, while a selected song file can display comments from
the author (Song Information, see page 103), etc. If the selected file is part of a
ReFill, this will be indicated regardless of the file type.
Audition section
This section contains controls for auditioning samples and REX files - see page
89.
Select Previous/Next arrow buttons
These buttons allow you to move the current file selection up or down in the list.
In the Patch or Sample Browser, a selected file (patch or sample) is automati-
cally loaded in the background.
Loading indicator
This icon will light up to indicate that a patch or sample is loading.
Navigating in the Browser
Here, the Patch Browser was opened from a Subtractor device, allowing you to browse for
Subtractor patches.
When navigating in the Browser, items are shown as a hierarchical list in a se-
lected root folder, just like in your computer finder.
All folders and subfolders within a root folder are shown, but only files of the rel-
evant type (i.e. songs/samples/patches etc.) can be viewed/selected in the
Browser. For example, if you have selected to browse samples for a NN-XT de-
vice, only audio samples will be shown in the Browser.
• Click on the plus sign (Win)/arrow (Mac) beside a closed folder to open it. If
the folder contains files of the relevant type, these will be shown.
• Double-clicking a folder in the list opens it as the root folder in the Browser.
• The Name, Modified, and Size columns show the name of the folder or file,
the modified date (files only) and the size (files only), respectively. Clicking
on a column header sorts the files accordingly (i.e. alphabetically, by date
saved or by file size).
• You can use the Back/Forward buttons to move between different locations
you have opened in Browser. When you close the Browser this location list
is cleared.
• The “Select Previous/Next” arrow buttons allow you to move between files in
the current list. Folders are skipped.
• The “Where” pop-up list allows you to move up in the folder hierarchy when
the Browser points to a specific folder location (see “About hierarchic and
flat lists” below).
