How to browse FX plugin presets for any FX and preview results on a track?

I was trying to find a way to browse FX plugin presets so that I could preview any plugin preset and preview them in a similar way that I can do with Instruments with MIDI.

I was trying to do this from the MediaBay but I don’t see anyway I can apply the preset to any particular track, unless I missed something obvious?

Maybe route a channel back through Mediabay somehow??

This might make a nice addition to the Mixer if it was turned into a feature request.

Currently it is very tedious to load one plugin at a time and preview the presets.

thanks

Here, in the Right-Pane under the effects section, I can browse and use them via drag and drop.

But I don’t know why they have the On-Screen keyboard shown? It makes no sense as you can’t preview FX like regular instruments.

What it needs is a way to preview in for the selected channel.

Show with directory structure would help aw well.

I guess currently you can only load the preset and if you don’t like it undo it with Alt/Opt +Z
