Preset Tabs

  • iZotope: lists all factory presets installed with Neutron 3 Elements.
  • Custom: lists all custom presets you have saved or modified in Neutron 3 Elements.

Default and Working Settings

There are two common options that are always available at the top of the preset list in the iZotope and Custom tabs:

Preset common options

  • Working Settings: Loads your most recent changes that are not otherwise associated with a preset.
  • Default: Loads the factory default settings.

Dirty state indicator

When you make changes to a preset an asterisk (*) will be shown at the beginning of the preset name to indicate that it has been modified. You can add a new preset to save your settings or update the preset to dismiss the dirty state indicator.
