Waldorf 9 Operation Manual
Functions of the Edit Menu
The Attack offers several different functions for convenient organization of kits and
sounds. In the edit menu in the upper left corner of the plug-in you can choose the fol-
lowing functions:
 Import File... (Macintosh only) imports a VST or AudioUnit program.
 Copy Sound copies the sound into the buffer.
 Paste Sound puts the copied sound into any desired place. This is useful when
creating variations of one particular sound.
 Please take into consideration that the buffer can hold only one sound at a time.
As soon as a second sound is copied with the Copy Sound function, the previ-
ously selected sound is erased from the buffer. After inserting a sound with Paste
Sound, the sound is still in the buffer and can be inserted into yet another positi-
on.
 Copy Kit copies the kit into the buffer.
 Paste Kit inserts the copied kit at any position. This is useful when exchanging kits
between different songs.
 With Compare Sound you can compare the edited sound with the original. As soon
as the Compare function is activated, the sound changes back to its original settings
and the Compare function in the edit menu gets a flag. Reselecting the function
brings up the edited version again.
 With Compare Kit you can compare the edited drum kit with the original. As soon
as the Compare function is activated, the kit changes to its original settings and the
Compare function in the edit menu gets a flag. Reselecting the function brings up the
edited version again.
 Recall Sound restores the sound to its original saved settings. Use this function if
you’re not happy with the edited sound.
 Recall Kit restores the drum kit to its original saved settings. Use this function if
you’re not happy with the edited drum kit.
Functions of the Preset Menu
The Preset menu in the upper left corner of the plug-in offers different entries with
suggested default preferences for the various drum sounds and kits as well as two
random functions. Select the corresponding entry when you know what sort of drum
