1. The WaveSystem Toolbar
All Waves plugins feature the WaveSystem toolbar, which takes care of most of the
administrative functions you will encounter while working with your Waves software. The
features of the WaveSystem toolbar are the same on practically all Waves plugins, so familiarity
with its features will be helpful whichever plugin you are using.

2. Preset Handling
Preset Types
1. Factory Presets are permanent presets in the Load menu. Factory presets cannot be
overwritten or deleted. When applicable, different component plugins may have different
factory presets.
2. User Presets are your favorite settings of the plugin saved as a preset in the Load menu,
under ‘User Presets.’ User Presets can be overwritten or deleted.
3. Setup Files may contain more than one preset. For example, a single file can contain all the
presets for a session. When you open a Setup File, all its setups become part of your Load
pop-up menu for fast access. This can be particularly useful with multiple instances of a
plugin in a single session. By saving all the settings you create into a single Setup File, they
can all be quickly available for every instance of that plugin.
