I do intend to support ‘invisible’ presets. If you do not assign a preset object to the track, the plugin settings could be stored as a hidden property of the track. That way you can ignore library presets if you don’t want to reuse presets between tracks.

I’m not sure what you mean by ‘invisible’ presets, but it would be fine by me if the plugin settings were stored as a hidden property of the track, as long as they were remembered as part of the Project. I don’t need to see the name of the patch to know that it sounds right.

The way I like to work I load up Stylus RMX, find a patch that I like, copy the midi file/s to the host, then start working. I’ll rarely need to view the Stylus browser again during that Project, but it’s vital that I can be confident that the host recalls the correct patch next time I load it up.

When do you expect to have this feature enabled?

Cheers,

Malcolm.

BTW, I LOVE the way editing works in Podium. Awesome stuff! 🙂

I’m glad it’s not the Podium preset retrieval that is at fault.

The problem was that the method of accessing the patches for Stylus and Atmosphere is quite different to the examples in the “Recording” video. I expected to be able to access the Spectrasonics patches in the same way.

I’m currently making some improvements to the track inspector, so I’ll try to make it more obvious how to open the editors.

That would be great. I think I’ll print out a copy of the Keyboard shortcuts. 🙂

Well I have used Stylus RMX in Podium on many occassions and never had a problem. I assume you mean the problem you have is trying to access the RMX multis/lelements from Podiums preset browser? If that is the case then I don’t think the presets (multis/elements) can be used from there.

THe RMX presets can only be accessed form the built in RMX browser. I also have Samplitude Pro and can also access the mutlis/grooves/suites and elements from within the RMX browser while using Samplitude Pro but not from anywhere else.

Hi Conquistador,

Thanks for your help.

It’s a pity that the Spectrasonics presets can’t be accessed from within the POD Preset tab. It would make things a lot simpler than having to load the RMX/Atmosphere browser, but yes, the same situation exists in Samplitude and FL Studio.

So how do you actually access the RMX or Atmosphere browsers from within Podium? I can’t seem to find out how to do this in the manual. I tried double-clicking on the device from the “devices” page, but all this loaded was a list of outputs. How do I access the VSTi plugin interface?

Cheers,

Malcolm.

Hi Frits,

Thanks for your fast response. I tried “update programs list” on both plugins but I still can’t see the presets.

Any other suggestions?
