When I press a preset name on top of the Serum a list of all the preset banks appears on the screen (4 vertical sections of 32 banks each), but not all of them fit on the screen. How can I get to the ones that are left (to the right) off the screen?

 

Right arrow key on keyboard maybe? I've had a similar problem in fl studio which this fixed.

 

I just make more subfolders in my Presets folder so they don't go off the screen.

My Presets folder right now looks like this:
_Factory
Cymatics
Expansions (for various stuff)
Future Loops
Ghosthack
User
Vandalism

You can then go one more layer deep before the fxp files.

eg:
_Factory
- Bass
-- BA Ampology [CFA].fxp
-- BA Analog Pluck [SN].fxp
-- etc
- Bass (Hard)
- FX
- Leads
- Misc
- Pads
- Plucked
- Seq
- Synth

 

Thank you for your replies.
Yes, the right arrow key goes beyond the visible banks list, but I want to see them.
The subfolders will help, but with adding new banks I will have to re arrange them all the time.
I wonder if Duda didn't think about it in the first place, and left it this way to make people look for a workaround?

 

I start by deleting all the presets that I don't like and will never use, I can usually get rid of 2/3rds to 3/4ths of them, keeping only the ones that I really like and use often. Why have useless presets clutter up your banks, do you really need hundreds or thousands of presets which you will never use. I like my system as lean as possible. I hate searching though endless banks of presets wasting my time.

 

Thank you for advice, it really make sense. I still would like to know how was it programmed, is there really no normal browser/scroller like most of the syths have?

 

There is a sound browser next to the left right arrows on the upper right but it will only show you single sounds. It might also take a long time if you have these much sounds and never opened it before because it will scan the whole folder for the first time or if there are changes.

I would also suggest to create folders. I personally have genre folders like Trap, EDM, Pop etc and put the folders in them.

 

Yeah, that "browser" made me think that probably there is no other one in Serum, but as you wrote it shows single presets which is not very convenient.
Ideally it would be the great to have a "regular" browser, like Spire 1.5 (finally) got, and seeing how advanced Duda is I thought that it is me who couldn't find a simple cursor move))

 

I didn't know myself but you can actually also filter by location if you click on the arrow next to the search bar and it should show you the folders at least it did for me.
