Preset browser (find and load sounds)
in instrument mode opens that track's preset browser (on OS 1.1.33 opens it for the selected track). Browse by engine or by category — a click of E1 swaps them — and load a preset with a click of E2.
The browser changes a track's whole sound in one step. Category view groups sounds by role; engine view lists everything built on one engine, handy when you know the character you want. Your own presets and folders sit beside the factory ones and are managed from the same screen.
