Sharing Presets

The ⋯ button in the preset bar opens a menu for trading presets with other players. There is no built-in online store or downloads — everything is done through ordinary files and your clipboard, so you swap sounds however you like (a forum post, a chat message, a shared folder).

Export current patch: - To file… — saves the current sound as a .xml preset file wherever you choose. This file is identical to a normal saved preset, so any preset file you have already saved is equally shareable as-is. - To clipboard — copies the same preset as text, ready to paste into a message. (If a saved preset is selected and unchanged, its name travels with it; otherwise the copy is labelled "Untitled Patch".)

Import preset: - From file… — opens a .xml preset file someone shared with you. - From clipboard — reads a preset that was pasted onto your clipboard.

An imported preset is always added to your user presets (it appears at the top of the list, where your own saved sounds live) — it never overwrites an existing preset. If the incoming name clashes with one you already have, a number is appended (e.g. Cathedral Wind (2)). Importing does not change the sound you are currently playing: the preset simply joins your list, ready to load when you want it.

Imported presets are validated before they are saved: only recognised control values are read, anything out of range is clamped back into range, and anything unexpected in the text is ignored. Nothing is opened or downloaded from the shared text beyond those control values. If the file or clipboard does not hold a valid patch, a short message says so and nothing is saved.

Presets are portable across plugin versions on a best-effort basis: a preset made with a different version still loads, and any control the two versions do not share simply keeps its current value.
