4.1.2 Virtual StudioLive: Browser
When you first launch VSL, notice the Browser window along the right
side of the screen. The Browser in VSL functions similarly to the Browser
in Studio One. From the Browser, you can see all of your Scenes, Fat
Channel presets, and FX presets that are saved on your computer.
You can also create new settings from this window. Simply drag-
and-drop a Scene or preset to load it on your AudioBox 1818VSL.
Browser Tab Buttons Displays the Different Preset Categories.
All of your Scenes and presets are contained in dedicated folders in VSL.
To view a specific set of presets, simply click on its tab.
• SCENE. Displays stored Scenes. A Scene is like a snapshot of your
mix. It stores all Fat Channel parameters for every input and bus, as
well as fader positions, the aux and effects mixes, FX bus settings, and
channel mutes and solos. Creating a Scene requires simply dialing
in a mix that you would like to use at a later date and saving it.
• FAT CH. Displays stored Fat Channel presets. VSL comes equipped with Fat
Channel presets that have been custom-designed by professional audio
engineers. These presets can be altered, renamed, and overwritten; you can
build your own nearly limitless custom library of channel-strip settings.
• FX. Displays stored effects presets. VSL comes loaded with 50 custom
reverb and delay presets designed by PreSonus. In addition to these
presets, you can build your own nearly limitless custom effects library.
The factory presets can be altered, renamed, and overwritten.
Add New Button Creates a New Scene or Preset.
Just below the Browser tabs, you will see the Add New button. Clicking
this button will immediately create a new Scene or preset.
Remove Button Deletes a Stored Scene or Preset.
Right next to the Add New button, you will find
the Remove button. Clicking this button will delete
the currently selected, stored Scenes or presets.
Show/Hide Browser Displays/Hides the Browser Window.
The Browser can be hidden from view to provide more real-estate for
your mix. Simply click on the “Hide Browser” button to close the Browser.
To reopen the Browser, click on the “Show Browser” button in the upper
right corner of your VSL window.
