in the Tree. (Look at the bottom of the list.)
4. Rename your new preset and double-click on the plus sign to open it. The Voices
& Zones, Links and Voice Processing branches appear.
5. Click on the Links icon. The Link window appears.
6. Select Links > New Link to create a new blank link.
7. Click on the Preset button to the right of the preset field. A pop-up menu appears.
8. Select a preset.
Adds all voices from all links to the current preset
and removes the link(s).
9. Repeat steps 6 and 7 to add additional presets until the desired thickness is
achieved.
Subsuming Links
If you want to add all the voices from your links to the current preset, use the Subsume
Links command. This adds all voices from the linked presets to the current preset, and
removes the links.
For single-sample voices, subsuming links only brings in voices that are located in the
range defined in the Links Key Window. If a voice falls entirely out of the range defined
in the Links Key Window, it is discarded when you subsume links.
For multisample voices any sample whose voice falls within the range defined in the
Links Key Window is brought into the preset, even if the sample itself is mapped to a
location that falls out of the Links Key Window range.
If you link two or
more presets, the Preset
FX of the linked presets
will be ignored. The
linked presets will be
routed through the
effects of the main preset.
