User Knobs
Control predefined parameters in the Playback,
Effect, and XFade modules. In Edit mode, you
can assign a module’s User Knobs to control cer-
tain performance parameters. The MIDI module
lets you assign MIDI controllers to each of the
User Knobs in each module.
Sound A and B Selectors
Are available both in Edit and Performance
mode for the Playback and Effect modules.
These buttons toggle which sound—Sound A or
Sound B—the current Playback or Effect preset
is processing. Both Sound A and B selectors can
be enabled at the same time, allowing for a sin-
gle Playback or Effect preset to modify both
Sound A and Sound B at the same time. When
neither Sound A nor Sound B selectors are en-
abled, the currently selected Playback or Effect
preset is disabled until one of the Sound selec-
tors is enabled.
On-Screen Keyboard
Can be used to trigger presets in the other four
modules. You can also assign the on-screen key-
board, or an external MIDI keyboard, to trigger
different presets. For more information, see
“Synchronic MIDI Module Overview” on
page 598.
Synchronic Presets
Each module has 12 presets available, as follows:
Sound module presets are used to load and
store audio files (loops).
Playback, Effects, and XFade module pre-
sets are used to store and recall various Edit
mode settings.
MIDI module presets store MIDI control
assignments (which can include combina-
tions of presets from each of the other mod-
ules).
Synchronic presets are unique to each instance
(each insert) of Synchronic in a session. To save
the global state of Synchronic presets in a given
instance, use the plug-in librarian (see
Chapter 104, “Synchronic Plug-In Settings”).

Plug-In settings and presets can be shared
between the AudioSuite and RTAS versions
of Synchronic. However, the AudioSuite ver-
sion of the plug-in can import and export
only information stored for the Sound, Play-
back, and Effect modules in the first preset.
