Wish Axe-Edit III Sorting Capabilities

[api4u]

A couple of AE-III Sorting WISHES:

1. Ability to sort presets by the AMP that is in the preset. (This concept could also be extended to the other blocks, such as Cab, Drive, etc.)

2. Ability to sort presets alphabetically in AE-III.
I know this can be done with file lists, that are on your computer, but I don't think it can be done with the presets.
It would also be useful to be able to sort them by date added.

2. There is a "Sort A-Z" button at the bottom left of the Preset picker window in Axe-Edit III

How would #1 even work?

An Amp block can have 4 different models.

A preset can have 2 different Amp blocks.

Search by (amp, or other block) model makes more sense.

This would be an editor request.

"Show presets using Amp ______[v]"

Results show the preset name and channel that contains the model.

000: 59 Bassguy: Amp 1: A, B, C, D
012: Dynamic Duo: Amp 1: C; Amp 2: A, B, C

Maybe...

But if I search by 59 Bassguy many, many presets will show up because (I think) it's the default amp model on "unused" channels.

Yeah, search makes more sense as Dave said... Not sort

Blue skying here...

It'd have to be smart enough to look at the scenes, see which channels they actually used.

But i can't see how it'd know which scenes you actually use. I almost always have all 8 set up, but sometimes some of them are remnants of the preset this one is a copy of, nothing to do with current reality.

Yep, see Matt's post...

Although that doesn't cover the scenes.

Agree on all the great points made here, as far as the potential different amps in Scenes - good call.

Perhaps a way to accomplish it would be to show a "list" of presets with the amps. This may list some presets duplicate times, if they have more than one amp.

For instance, sometimes I want to find all my presets with a given amp, to compare. I typically group my presets more or less by amp types. Fenders are together, and then sorted by Vibroverb, Twin, Super, Deluxe, etc....

A search mechanism would also be great, and maybe that's the preferred way to go. I would still like to be able to have a hard list though, of amp models in presets, so I can better sort them.

OCD, I know... ;-)
