Getting to Know the Library
The Library is a powerful tool that you can use to access the following file types.

 Channel strip settings (.cst)
 Plug-in settings (.pst)
 EXS instruments (.exs)
 Environment instruments, and programs or banks of MIDI instruments created in the

Audio MIDI Setup utility

 ReWire MIDI instruments, and active ReWire hosts

The Library automatically displays setting files that match the selected channel strip
type and section (Channel Strip Settings menu, Insert slot, Instrument slot). A white
frame indicates the selected section of the Arrange channel strips.

You can browse for files by opening folders, or search by performing text searches.
Matching files are displayed in the Search Results list. When you find a file you want to
use, you can simply load it by selecting it.
