folder
you’ll
find
a
folder
called
banks.
Inside
this
is
a
series
of
folders,
one
for
each
Bank.
The
folder
names
begin
with
three-­‐digit
numbers,
starting
with
000.
Carefully
renumber
the
folders
in
the
order
you
would
prefer,
making
sure
to
put
an
underscore
character
after
the
number.
When
you’re
finished,
restart
the
VFX
Application.
The
Banks
will
now
be
in
a
new
order.
5.10.3 Preset
File
Management
The
file
management
features
for
Presets
in
the
VFX
Application
are
as
follows:
● Clear
Preset
● Rename
Preset
● Clone
Preset
From...
These
commands
are
available
both
in
the
pop-­‐up
menu
when
you
click
on
the
Preset
name
in
the
V-­‐Machine
Pane
and
in
the
Preset
submenu
in
the
main
menu,
and
are
explained
earlier
in
this
chapter,
in
the
section
5.5.7.
The
SAVE
icon
is
also
essential
in
managing
Presets,
as
it
stores
the
current
Preset
into
the
Library.
You
will
not
see
a
dialog
box
asking
for
a
location
to
which
to
save
the
Preset;
it
will
be
saved
to
its
current
location
in
the
current
Bank.
Nor
will
you
see
an
“Are
You
Sure?”
message,
so
use
this
command
with
care.
There
is
no
“Save
Preset
As...”
command.
To
do
this
operation,
start
by
selecting
an
empty
Preset,
clone
an
existing
Preset
into
it
(as
shown
in
Figure
34),
then
make
your
edits
in
the
cloned
copy
and
save
it.
Note:
The
Preset
pop-­‐up
menu
will
appear
in
the
V-­‐Machine
Pane
even
if
you
have
used
the
arrow
buttons
in
the
second
row
to
move
to
a
different
preset,
but
have
not
yet
clicked
the
Load
button.
If
the
words
Load
and
Back
are
visible,
you
can
open
the
menu
and
issue
a
command,
but
some
of
the
menu
commands
won’t
work.
Clearing
a
Preset
will
remove
all
of
its
Plugins
and
Mixer
settings.
It
will
be
renamed
Empty
Preset.
(Note
that
clearing
the
Preset
will
not
remove
its
plugins
from
the
Library.
They
will
still
be
available
in
other
Presets.)
It’s
always
a
good
idea
to
use
the
Rename
Preset
command
before
saving
the
Preset.
Choose
a
short,
descriptive
name
such
as
“EP/String
Layer.”
The
exact
number
of
letters
you’ll
be
able
to
see
displayed
in
the
name
depends
on
the
width
of
the
letters.
New
Presets
don’t
have
to
be
created.
Each
Bank
starts
with
128
Presets,
all
of
them
empty.
To
start
working
with
a
new
Preset,
simply
use
the
right
arrow
in
the
second
row
of
the
V-­‐
Machine
Pane
to
scroll
to
a
Preset
with
a
default
name
(such
as
Preset
2)
and
click
the
arrow
button
beside
the
word
Load.
Cloning
existing
Presets
is
a
great
way
to
quickly
configure
new
Presets.
Cloning
duplicates
all
of
the
settings
of
another
Preset,
including
plugin
selections,
MIDI
settings,
and
Mixer
settings.
You
can
clone
a
Preset
by
clicking
your
mouse
on
the
Preset
name
displayed
in
the
V-­‐Machine
Pane
and
selecting
Clone
Preset
From
in
the
menu.
