Hi there aux, welcome to the forum.

There are two important things you need to do.

1) Preset Manager - this should go inside the main "mother" container of your VST, but not buried inside a "daughter" sub-module otherwise it will lose communication with your controls.

2) Controls - it is important that every control has a unique name for its 'preset' property. To edit the properties, click the little 'P' icon in the bottom right corner of the module, and just type a new name into the 'Preset' edit box. When you drop controls in from the toolbox, the presets all end up getting the same default name - this confuses the preset manager and host, because they can't tell which control is which until you rename them.

You can also open 'properties' for the preset manager, which will let you choose how many presets to store there in one 'bank' - any presets you create inside the SM editor will be remembered as the default presets when you first open an instance of your new plugin.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
