Hi there,

I am just playing around with the Audio-Plugin “Pitched Delay” and saw, that the Zynthian UI isn’t giving the opportunity to access the presets.

I played with it a little on my computer, insted on the zynthian itself. Saved a preset and found where it was stored on my computer. I then wanted to transfer it to the Zynthian. On my Computer it was stored in my `~/.config/lkjb/PitchedDelayPresets.xml`. Similarly it was store on Zynthian in `/root/.config/lkjb/PitchedDelayPresets.xml`.

But then in the Zynthian UI, I saw that there is no option to load any presets. Actually the presets are just added in the XML-file right one after the other, so all presets are saved in that file and I copied my new preset-file to that locaition on Zynthian.

Is it actually difficult to enable any in-Zynthian-UI preset dialog for that plugin?

Hi @Jojo_Action !

Zynthian UI need the rpesets to be in LV2 format, so you need to convert your XML presets. Follow these steps:

- Enable VNC. You should see the XML presets in the plugin’s native gui accessed from VNC.
- Save your presets in LV2 format from the topbar menu. You have to do it one by one.
- From the zynthian UI, re-scan for new presets from the plugin 's preset options.
- Now the new LV2 presets should be available from the UI.

Regards
