Is there a way in Zebra2, Diva, and/or Hive 2 to navigate presets using the keyboard? I don't see anything about it in the manuals, and I can't get it to work.
Thanks,
Mark

Once you click into the list of presets, you can use cursor keys to go up/down.
(also right/left in those browsers that have multiple columns)

Hmmm...not working for me. I'll dig around and see if I can figure out. But thanks for your response letting me know it works on your end.

You also have to make sure that your host hands over all needed keys to the plugin.
Most should do that automatically, but not all hosts give all keys to the plugin, or you need to activate it in the host.
Which host are you using, and on Mac or PC?

If you're on Linux, this is a known issue in at least Bitwig and Mixbus (+ Mixbus 32C).

Ah yes, Studio One uses the arrow keys to navigate between tracks, and does not hand them over to the plugin when it has the keyboard focus.

Thanks for explaining that. Is there a workaround?
I've contacted Presonus support to try to get an answer - I'll reply when I find something out.

I'd really wish Harrison would do the same thing for Mixbus (and of course 32C).

I'm using Studio One 6.1.2 on a Mac and this issue has been bothering me for a while. I finally spent some time on it and have a workaround of sorts.
In Studio One Keyboard Shortcuts, there are simple "Up" and "Down" entries in the Navigation section. These are assigned to the up and down arrows, respectively. I changed the key binding to use something else (shift + "<" and ">") just to see if that would allow u-he Zebra2, Diva, etc. to "see" the arrow key presses, and it worked.
I'm not sure whether Presonus or u-he need to change something for the regular arrow keys to work when the plugin has focus, but there you go.
