Using the Plug-in menu: You can also choose the desired Plug-in directly from the Plug-in
slot itself via the Plug-in menu.
Note that these methods work in any channel: Sounds, Groups, or Master. However, since
Drumsynth is an instrument, you can load it only into the first Plug-in slot of Sounds.
The difference between the two loading methods is that the Browser allows you to load Plug-in
pre-
sets
(from the factory content or user-created), while the Plug-in menu allows you to load Plug-ins

Since you should already be familiar with the Browser (if not, check for example section
Loading a Drum Kit from the Factory Library
4.2.1, Selecting Another Snare Sample
), this
time you will learn the method using the Plug-in menu.
