Is this new? Does it behave different from Hive (where we lifted it from)?
I just checked Hive and it is behaving completely different in Hive than in Z3. In Hive, it is how I expect. It's just broken in Z3

You mean from a whole module?
I mean if I have a knob that has 3 modulations on it, and I right click the knob, it now shows the 3 modulations, and options to remove them one by one, but the option to remove all modulations is not there.
Ah, ok! I can probably do that, too!

What do you mean? CC 02 can still be assigned to the Ctrl A/B/C/D parameters, this hasn't been removed.

I'm sure this has been requested before, but wavetable presets would be nice. Oscillator presets are all fine and good, but sometimes I just want to cycle through different wavetables. I suppose I could lock every oscillator parameter outside of the wavetable and cycle through oscillator presets, but wavetable presets would be a big help.

It's on our (quite long) to-do list.

Yes, I just checked and CC 2 Breath is still an option in the list.

Hi, I really luv this beauty. Don't know if it is a lot of work, but for the lazy people like me, it would be handy to go directly from any page (Perform, Matrix, or FX/Out) to the Osc or MSEG editors. As it is now, one must open the orc first, to get there.

Like this maybe??

Sorry, should have made it more clear. I don't mean the ABCD controls, they're OK. I mean eg if a modulation source in the Matrix is set to Pressure, I want to be able to change it to Breath. Because now you can have AT plus ABCD, so since I don't have an AT enabled controller, I need to change it to something else.
Hope I've explained myself better this time.

That's what the Control A-D parameters are for. Set one of them to Breath (CC 2)

Regarding selecting things quicker, like select the Osc if one clicks in the Osc's background or its respective tab etc., I'm not a big fan. The highlighting of modules in the Grid serves multiple functions in the Grid and Racks, and inadvertently selecting modules can interfere with Groups.
I do frequently work on the wrong oscillator because intuitively I think it's selected when it's not. So I make a lot of errors right now with the way it's set up. But I understand the issue with the groups and making errors there might be more 'costly'? A question of priority I guess.

Hmm, ok, I can see that point.

Hello
I also want to report that something with the reverb FX is broken. I created a simple patch (1x OSC, 1x 18db linear LP filter and comp1 & Rev 1 on master fx and delay 1 on bus1) and everything was working until i added a new FMO where the synth didn't output any audio(or just really short snippet and then muted). deactivated and removed the FMO but still no sound. Deactivated rev 1 - sound was working again. Had to reload the plugin (reloading rev 1 didn't help) and now the patch with Rev 1 fx activated is working again.
Cheers Martin

Same seems to happen for me. If I remember right, this worked on beta 1?

I might be in the minority here but the whole "groups" thing never took with me. But I've been using Zebra for over a decade so I just select the module in the grid and Zebra shows it on the rack, which is good enough for me. But if the groups help people I'm all for it. I just never use them.

Edit: is there a way to save a custom init preset? If not, could there be?
Similar to Vital and Surge? These are the only two synths that I know of, that lets you customize the init preset (not just the opening preset)

I have asked for this one or two times.
