Import VST Presets

Imports all presets from your supported plugins and adds them to the database, or updates the presets if the they already exist.

If you have modified the preset metadata, and update a preset, your changes will be preserved.

If a new plugin is found, or the plugin DLL has changed, PresetMagician performs the following analysis:

  1. Load the metadata (Plugin ID, Plugin Name, Vendor etc) and check which Preset Parser to use

  2. Check for duplicate plugins (for example, you have the same plugin in different versions and different directories) and merge duplicates into a single plugin

As analysis is a time-consuming process, the analysis is usually only done once. However, to make sure that the correct Preset Parser is used, PresetMagician needs to perform an analysis for each new PresetMagician version because, for example, it could be that a previously unsupported plugin is now supported (and the Preset Parser needs to be changed).

Load Presets for Selection

Only analyzes the selected plugins.
