The Multi Zone
At the top left of the MediaBay Page you will find the con-
tent selection pop-up menu. Here you can decide which
content you would like to use the MediaBay Page to
search through.
Although Sequel comes with thousands of great loops,
you may want to add loops from other libraries or content
you created yourself. In order to separate factory content
from your own libraries, Sequel has a folder structure for a
clean organization of media files. To add a new library from
a CD or DVD, create a new subfolder inside the “VST
Sound” folder on your hard drive, pick a meaningful name
for this library and copy all its files into this subfolder. If
your content is located elsewhere, create a shortcut/alias
for this subfolder. You can later browse this folder by se-
lecting it from the content selection pop-up menu on the
MediaBay Page.
Selecting “User Content” will only show files that you have
added to the User Content folder on your hard drive. Loops
that you add to the MediaBay Page by drag&drop will auto-
matically be saved in the User Content folder, see “Adding
Content” on page 70. You can specify the User Content
Location on the Program Settings Page, see “The Program
Settings Page” on page 77.
Ö After you added new content to Sequel, the MediaBay
Page has to learn about which content has been added
and scan for this new content. On the PC, this happens
automatically when the transport is stopped, so make sure
Sequel is not playing when you add loops. On the Mac,
you will have to restart Sequel after adding new content.
To specify attributes for your media files, select the file so
that it is displayed to the right on the MediaBay Page, click
in the tag columns and select a tag value from the pop-up
menu, or enter a new numerical value (depending on the
type of the tag value).
Showing Loops, Sounds and Tracks
Using the Show Loops, Sounds, and Tracks buttons you
can decide what kind of files you want to search for.
By activating the “Show Loops” button only audio and in-
strument loops will be shown. With the “Show Sounds”
button only instrument presets and instrument track pre-
sets are shown, and the “Show Tracks” button is used to
show audio track presets.
Searching by file name
At the top right of the MediaBay Page you will find the Text
Filter field. Here you can type in a name to search for.
Pressing [Return] will show the results to the right.
Setting a rating filter
Next to this there is the Rating Filter setting. You can use
this to automatically get rid of loops and patches that you
have given a low rating to. Any files with a lower rating
than the one you specify here will be filtered out.
