Preset Manager

Every preset you own, in one place

Sonora lists the presets of each synth, lets you search and organize them, and opens them in the Plugin Host with a double-click.

Sonora Manager preset library with a list per synth

Find sounds faster

One list per synth

Serum, Vital, Sylenth1, Massive, Diva, Spire and Phase Plant each get their own list, with the number of packs installed. A plugin you save presets from gets its own list too.

Search

Type a name to find a preset, then narrow the list to one synth.

Favorites

Star the presets you reach for. In the Plugin Host list, one switch shows only your favorites.

Collections

Group presets into collections of your own, across packs.

Your own presets

Save the current sound of a synth as a new preset, then rename, duplicate or delete it.

My presets

Each plugin you save presets from gets a My presets row with the presets you saved from the Plugin Host. Open them, add them to a collection or delete them from there.

Preset packs

Install a pack and see which packs you have and how many presets each one holds.

From the list to the sound

Pick a preset, double-click it, and the Plugin Host takes over.

Double-click

Loads by itself

The synth opens in the Plugin Host and the preset goes into it.

Serum 2 (.SerumPreset) · Diva (.h2p) · Sylenth1 and other VST2 synths (.fxp)

Drag and drop

You drop the preset

The synth opens and Sonora shows the preset file, ready to drag onto the synth window.

Vital · Massive · Spire · Phase Plant · other synths

Frequently asked questions

Can I use presets from any synth?

Sonora lists the presets of Serum, Vital, Sylenth1, Massive, Diva, Spire and Phase Plant, plus any plugin you save presets from. Opening a preset in the Plugin Host applies it directly for Serum 2, Diva and VST2 synths such as Sylenth1 (.fxp files saved by that plugin), and by drag and drop for the others.

Do I need the Plugin Host to use the Preset Manager?

No. The Preset Manager organizes and searches your presets on its own. The Plugin Host is what opens them inside the plugin.

Can I save my own presets?

Yes. Tweak a sound in the synth, then save the current state as a preset from the Plugin Host.

Where do the presets I save show up?

In the Presets tab, under the plugin you saved them from, in a row called My presets.
