VSM IV features our advanced patch management.
To open VSM IV’s Patch Browser, click the icon to the left of the main parameter display.
To close the Patch Browser, click on the Close button in the Patch Browser, or click on the icon again. Alternatively, double-click a patch to load it and close the browser immediately.
Depending on the speed of the drive where the library is stored, loading the sounds can take a couple of seconds. A spinning wheel located to the right of the save icon will confirm when it’s completed.
The patch list on the right of the screen displays the patches that match the filtering options selected in the four filter columns. If you want to view every patch without filtering, select ALL in each of the filtering columns.
To load a patch, click on its name in the patch list! Double-clicking the patch will load it and close the browser in one action.
Right-clicking a patch in this list provides an option to delete the patch, which will move the patch file to the trash bin and remove it from the browser. This menu also lets you view the patch file stored on your computer.
‘Alpha’ patches are marked with the alpha symbol (⍺) next to their name.
Our patch designers think these patches are the best representation of VSM’s capabilities. They are also the only patches accessible in the demo version. When you load VSM for the first time, these patches will be sorted to the top of the patch list.
Next to each patch name is a heart icon. Click it to mark this patch as a favourite. You can then sort the patches by favourites so they always come to the top of your patch filter or search results.
