Anyone know how to turn of the preset preview in Nexus, when I click any preset now in Nexus 5 it plays a preview note which is driving me f-ing crazy. It wasn't doing that before but there must have been some update that turned that on. Been googling for an answer and looking in the Nexus manual but no luck. I thought there was an easy way to turn off the preview but can't find it, maybe I'm just getting stupider. Thanks for any help.

Click where it says preview and the green indicator goes off. Or turn on single click preset load.

Thanks, the only thing is that "Preview" button isn't displayed in Nexus for me. I'm updated to the latest version too. Weird, I thought it was displayed previously like you have in your screenshot, maybe a bug or something.FigBug wrote: Thu Jun 11, 2026 11:49 pm Click where it says preview and the green indicator goes off.

Is you go to the SYS page, do you have "Single click preset load" enabled? If so, try disabling it, turning off preview, and then re-enabling it. Sounds like a bug, but I currently can't reproduce it.

Those exact steps fixed it, the preview is off now. Thank you, you saved me from a night of torture (not a fan of the preview, though I know some people like it). Thanks again.FigBug wrote: Fri Jun 12, 2026 12:36 am Is you go to the SYS page, do you have "Single click preset load" enabled? If so, try disabling it, turning off preview, and then re-enabling it.

Do you guys experience audio dropouts when editing parameters while audio is playing? This one is the only one which does that...(Win11). Not been able to fix it

Which parameter? Any parameter that is modulatable can be changed during playback without issues. Some other parameters (smaller dial with a dark background) may require the audio engine to be restarted and may crackle or dropout.exmatproton wrote: Fri Jun 12, 2026 1:39 am Do you guys experience audio dropouts when editing parameters while audio is playing?

Nah..i am talking the plain parameters. Like a filter cutoff. If i control them by mouse input, i get drops. Not because of performance issues (no spikes, no underruns). If they are modulated by anything else, i have no issues whatsoeverFigBug wrote: Fri Jun 12, 2026 3:46 pmWhich parameter?

I have managed to reproduce this. I'm surprised nobody else has ever complained. It will be fixed in 5.5exmatproton wrote: Fri Jun 12, 2026 7:37 pm Nah..i am talking the plain parameters.

Indeed weird that this is the first notice of it.
