Preset Browser

The Preset Browser is where you find, load, save, and organise all your presets — both the factory presets that ship with the app and the ones you create yourself.

Opening the browser​

Click the Preset tab in the navigation bar.

Browsing presets​

Presets are organised in folders in the left-hand panel:

  • Factory — presets that ship with Soundshed Guitar
  • My Presets — presets you have saved yourself
  • Community — presets downloaded from the community (see Community & Tone3000)

Click a folder to expand it. Click a preset name to load it immediately.

Searching presets​

Type in the search bar at the top of the browser to filter by name. Results update as you type. You can also filter by:

  • Tags — click a tag chip to show only presets with that tag (e.g. Clean, Crunch, Lead, Metal)
  • Rating — click the star icons to filter by minimum star rating
  • Favourites — click the heart icon to show only presets you have starred

Loading a preset​

Click a preset name to load it. The signal chain and all parameters update immediately. The currently loaded preset is highlighted in the list.

Saving a preset​

Save (overwrite current): Click Save in the top bar. The current preset is updated with your changes.

Save as new: Click Save As, enter a name, choose or create a folder, and click Save. A new preset is created and selected.

Adding tags and ratings​

With a preset selected, use the tag editor and star controls in the detail panel on the right to add tags and set a rating. Tags help you find presets by feel or genre later.

Organising with folders​

Right-click any folder to rename it, delete it, or create a sub-folder. Drag presets between folders to reorganise them.

Setlists​

A setlist groups presets in a fixed order, numbered by bank, so you can step through them one by one during a performance:

  1. Click New Setlist in the setlist panel.
  2. Drag presets from the browser into the setlist in the order you want.
  3. Use the up/down arrows on stage (or MIDI pedal if configured) to step through the setlist.

Importing and exporting presets​

Export: Right-click a preset and choose Export. The preset is saved as a .gfxpreset file that can be shared with others.

Import: Click Import and select a .gfxpreset file. The preset is added to My Presets and available immediately.

Imported presets carry their own embedded model and IR references where possible, so they should work even if the receiver's library does not contain the same files.
