Default Re: Open PI preset from surface

- push „insert“ on channel
- select plugin (plugin parameters spread over knobs)
- push „bank down“ + „bank up“ button simultaneously (the plugin presets will now spread over knobs)
- flip through pages of presets with „bank down“ and „bank up“
- especially useful for Reverbs, because even preset folders (Halls, Rooms, Plate...) are supported

So some genius came up with that idea when programming the 5-MC and while the S6 channel works 99% the same way, this great feature was lost on the way.

So I thought... I‘d bring it up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyone else interested in this?

All the best,
Gregor
It goes further than that - on S6 you cannot even instantiate any plugins from the surface except for your default favorite EQ/DYN.

The ability to do this is already on their radar and planned but I haven't heard anything about the preset selection - that is another no-brainer.
