3.3. Browsing Presets
With Analog Lab mode selected the center section and the Filter buttons work together to
streamline the process of selecting presets.
3.3.1. Filter buttons
There are times during the creative process when you already know the type of sound you
want: an acoustic piano, a lead, or a sequence, for example. The Filter buttons might be the
place to start in this case. They're located under the faders, and each of the 9 buttons is
labeled in blue with a useful category filter:
Filter type Description
Piano Acoustic pianos: concert grand, upright, etc.
Elec Piano Electric pianos: Suitcase, Stage, Wurlitzer, etc.
Organ B3, Farfisa, Vox Continental, etc.
Pad String synthesizers, ethereal voices, pads of all sorts
Bass Classic synthesizer basses, organ pedal instruments, etc.
Lead Synthesizer lead sounds ranging from mellow to aggressive
Seq Sequences and arpeggiator patterns: monophonic or polyphonic
Keys Synths and sounds from other instruments that are good for comping, etc.
Multi Splits and layers using sounds from all categories
For example, if you press the Piano button it will engage the piano filter and load a piano
sound; press the Pad button and presets matching that description will be made available
immediately.
As soon as a filter choice is made, the name of the first matching preset will appear in the
display with an asterisk to its left. After this you can use the Left / Right arrow buttons or the
center knob to scroll through the filter results. To disengage the filter, press the same Filter
button again.
When the Multi button is pressed Analog Lab will select the Multi category, where two
instruments can be played at the same time. For full details about Multi mode, please refer
to the Analog Lab user guide.
