I just bought M42 Nebula and I have a basic question. How can I select/change presets in this plugin? In Nebula, I was able to locate only the soundfont load window in the bottom left corner (but no preset selection window) and in the VST rack of Overture 4 (which I'm using as the host application) I can see and choose from only 128 (not 256) presets - so I have access to only one of Tim Conrardy soundbanks. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm just a beginner in the VST world. And I could not find this information in the M42 Manual. Thanks!

Thanks for the Q.
In M42 and M51( as well as most other synths) the standard is 128 for one bank. So, you can only load 128 at a time via the hosts bank management system. M42 does not have it's own bank management, so you have to do that with the host. It should have a dialog to load / save FXB (bank) and FXP (one preset).
The only thing you are doing with the SF oscillator is changing the sound in the soundfont, not changing a preset.
I hope this helps!
