presets menu

The Presets menu allows you to browse the sounds of the internal EaganMatrix sound engine and save user presets. It contains the following tabs : 

 

factory tab : access the factory library of presets

user tab : access the user presets

save tab : save your current preset into the user preset memory


 

factory tab

 

 

In alphabetical order, this tab displays all the factory presets available. The currently loaded preset is highlighted in green, and also displayed in gray in the background..

 

Turn the right-most VALUE ENCODER to select another preset. You’ll need to push the Encoder to actually load it. You can also step through the current preset list with the PRESET BUTTONS below. 

 

 

If a playing feature is activated on a preset, a press glide or arp icon appears on the left side of the screen. 


 


 

There are more than 500 factory sounds coming with Osmose, if you want to quickly find a specific sound, you can narrow down the preset list by selecting a type and character. 

 

For this, use the first two VALUE ENCODERS. 

Turn the first to choose a specific type of sound, like bass, pads, leads, or mallets. Push or simply let go for a moment to make your selection. 

Use the second encoder to filter down the list based on a sound’s character, like acoustic, fm, dark, electric…

 

💡if you want to explore specific interactions allowed by Osmose like Strum and Shake, both are available as a character tag.

 

ℹ factory presets cannot be overwritten or erased but can be modified and saved as a user preset with the help of the next two tabs.
 

 

user tab

 

 

This tab allows you to find your modified and favorite presets or to prepare for a gig. 

In memory location order, it displays all the user presets that you saved. 128 user slots are available, and the slot number is displayed in front of the preset name. 

Following the same logic as the factory tab, you can narrow down the preset list by selecting a type and character.


 

save tab 

 

 

This tab allows you to save the modifications you have made to a sound, in order to find and recall it later from the user tab.

 

When arriving on this tab, you can directly save a preset by clicking on the rightmost value encoder. 

That allows you to quickly save a preset without editing something. However, you can change some options before saving your preset by using the left-most value encoder to select an option to edit : 

 

location

Osmose will automatically select the first empty slot to save a preset coming from the factory library, and the same slot if you want to save again a user preset.

If you want to change the location to another slot from the 128 available, turn the first encoder to select the “location” line and click to enter in its edition. Turn the left-most value encoder to select a slot where to save to, and validate by pressing the right-most encoder. 

 

name

To avoid duplicate preset names, Osmose will automatically add a number at the end of the name. This number will be incremented if you save the same preset in different slots several times.

To give your user preset a specific name of your choice, turn the first encoder to select the “name” line and press to enter the renaming process. You can then scroll through characters by turning the first encoder. Turn the second encoder to move the cursor. Once you’re done, validate by pressing the fourth encoder. 

 

save sensitivity 

This saving option lets you decide whether or not you wish to save the current sensitivity menu settings with that preset or not. 

Turn the first encoder to select the “save sensitivity” line and click to change this option.

This option is deactivated by default but could be useful in a live gig situation for instance; after playing a lead with a lot of vibrato and bending, you can directly open a key sound without any bending.

 

save playing 

This saving option lets you decide whether or not you wish to save the playing menu settings with that preset. 

This option is activated by default to allow you to keep the same glide settings or open an arpeggiator with your preset.
