Remote saving new preset?

[Djordjo]

Hi patching friends,

I created a nice recording channel strip in Usine with some vocal manipulation plugins and now i want to make an iPad Interface for it.
First thing, i can't find an answer for how to remote control the (new) button for a preset.

The idea is I work with the iPad, do some settings and press the button for new preset without touching Usine,
and i get a new preset at the end of the preset list. That's it.

If i right click on the (next) and (previous) buttons I have an option to assign a remote control, but not for (new), (write) and (list).

I saw in the manual that there are modules named: (Preset Manager) and (Preset Settings).
When I open the (Preset Manager), I find it confusing that i'm forced to decide how much presets I want. Well, I don't know, let's say ten?!
Oh, wait, maybe I need more. Too late its already created. - I'm joking, but why this limitation?

The (Preset Manager) has an input trigger called (new/rewrite). When I create a button to trigger it, it creates a preset. If i press it again, it stays
on the preset and rewrites it, i guess. So I have to determine, what's the current preset number, do +1 and save the new one?

What if I already have some presets, like 5, stopped and the 3rd, did my edits and wanne save the the result as a new preset?
How can I determine where the next "empty" preset slot is?

All I want is that the (new) preset works like in the - built in one - for every patch.
I remote press it and a new preset is added at the end of the preset list.

BTW I don't understand the relation between the patch built in preset manager and the (Preset Manager) module.
If I create a Preset Manger in a patch it's basically the same. Is this historically grown. like first there was the (Preset Manger) module
then HH made it standard for every patch?

Best Regards

Hi Gjordjo,

You're right, the preset was first in Usine and for compatibility with older patches, it is still there. Actually, in 99% of situations, you don't need it anymore. You have presets for patches, racks and workspaces.

Unfortunately, we can't actually create a new preset dynamicaly. It' a good suggestion. I'll speak with Senso tomorrow, I will suggest. Probably not a big deal, so I hope the next release will do the job.
