AHM Preset selector drop-down

Hi all. Perhaps I’m missing something as I’m new to AHM and CC. Our venue requires upwards of 20 presets, all for different matrix configurations (eg. house LR, house LR Sub, touring LR etc.). Is there a way of selecting the required config from a dorp-down as opposed to having a dedicated button for each preset?
Also, a label showing the current preset on the Custom Control app would be super useful, but doesn’t seem to be an option in the dynamic label.

Thanks

Hi there!

There’s a couple of ways to achieve this.
For the big drop down of lots of different presets, I would use an unused zone’s Selector block and Add Presets instead of sources. You can reorder, rename and recolour them here too, if you’d like. Then, on CC you can just target that selector.
This does require an unused zone to be available but in general there tends to be one or two spare, I find.

For the “current preset” bit - the easiest way around this is to use a dynamic label - but set it to something unused in your config, for example Control Group name for an unused control group. Then, in each preset scope also store the “Control Group name and colour” for that control group, and save each preset in turn with the name you’d like to have on-screen.
Then, as you recall those presets, that Control Group also renames with the currently running preset.

Let me know if these don’t make any sense or if you’d like small functional example files that you can restore in an offline AHM.
