I would really like to have a way to directly enter the number of a sound within a bank without using my mac (I'm often using my mac live with other soft synths, so I would like to be able to fast jump from a sound to the other without having to use Logic Main Stage)
Numeric pad

If you hold shift you can tear through banks and patches pretty quickly with the softknobs
-
yeah, thanks, I only wanted a way to go fast through the hardware patches (often I'm using other software synths on the mac). thank you very much for the kind advice anyway !
-
You can read the "Virus Tutorial" (Programming analogue synths) by Howard Scarr to learn a trick about pressing both patch + - buttons to scroll faster I find it even faster than the softknobs, though I'm not able to explain it with my poor English.

Thanks Robi, I knew about the trick of pressing both together to get to the middle of the bank, will check the one you suiggest out too!
-
Basically if you want to go to the right you press the + and a second later the - and it will go faster. To get to the upper end youkeep pressed +, then you press and keep - (still pressing the +), release +, release - and you're at 127. Works the other way reversed. If you don't release the buttons you'll just scroll very fast.
I hope my explanation isn't too confusing, the tutorial really does it better -
It works! Thank you very much! I still would love a numeric pad
-
and when he said 'shift' he meant shift on the virus - nothing to do with the computer, you hold the shift on the virus then use the soft knobs to go through banks and presets (on the virus) really quickly.
-
Yeah, thanks I had got it!
-
would increments of ten not be more usefull when you hold down the shift button?
-
Yes, but I was looking for a way to only use the hardware synth and not the soft knobs.
-
sorry
hold down shift then use the plus or minus buttons for increments of ten
-
You mean shift on the computer, yeah, I know, but I often use other synths on the mac, anyway, I got solutions from other forums users already. Thanks!
-
no NOT the computer
i give up
-
LOL! Ok, I found the key, it's the store one. So, how do you use it to jump ten sounds?
-
Ok, I got it now! Lol! Thanks
