First of all, excuse me if this has already been requested...I haven´t found a proper request such as this but I might be wrong.
Native preset management, as it stands, is not precisely what I would call "flexible". You can only save/recall presets in a global fashion (that is, user presets appear on every instance of the plug). There seems to be no easy way to have a dedicated bank of presets for every instance of a FX (I mean, at least without having to deal with .ini files and all of that, which in itself would be a total mess for many of us).
Regarding this, Native Instruments´synths (mainly FM8, Absynth and Massive come to mind right now, which are the ones I use most) are, in my opinion, exemplary...you can activate/deactivate a bank of 128 programs per instance in which you can load anything that is included in the global database : internal, third party and user presets are easily arranged in the bank and you can have a dedicated list per instance.
Now, if we could just have a way to manage presets more flexibly, with options to have global and/or per instance user libraries, it would be remarkably more useful. When you import a .RPL library, for example, the imported presets are added to the existing list, so you end up with a massive list of all prresets for all projects. Deletion of user presets seems to be done one by one, if I´m not mistaken. At the very least, .RPL libraries should have the possibility to be saved/recall per instance, in my opinion.
Please, correct me if I´m wrong in some of my statements, but I haven´t found an easy way to handle presets per FX instance. I also don´t know if this section of the forum is attended at all, but I can´t help suggesting this since it would be of great help with, for example, something like Live Configs from the SWS Extensions...
