Preset values seem to be created in totally random order. What i would like is to be able to order them in any way i like. This would enable us to make the exported preset files a bit cleaner too.

Oh and this applies to automation values too.. Would be nice to have them in some order.

Is it not simply alphabetical?

No. Some hosts do order them that way, but SM seems to slap them in the order you create them.

You are right about the hosts, they rearrange them. There's a boolean input for the manager that says: "Order presets load/save", I tried to set in On and then save a patch, but it just add "-1" value to all paarameters in the .txt file.... (????)

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    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.
