Most indispensable organizational tip I ever got

For the longest time, I didn't realize the Quick-Load catalog existed. For anyone not already in the know, you can organize your instruments, banks, and multis any way you like. For instance, I put all my favorite pianos in a virtual directory called (insightfully) "Pianos." If you wanted a pianos directory under another directory called "Keyboards" you could do that. Put your massive harpsichord collection in one easy to find place? Yes, please.

It doesn't matter where they are in your computer's file system; these point to the originals. It's just an easier way to get to things based on how you prefer to categorize things. I also like focusing on the stuff I use most, as I have accumulated quite a bit of material over time. This is the fastest way for me to find and fire up what I need.

Just right-click in the empty rack space below the instruments, and Quick-Load instantly appears below. Right-click again to close it. When it's open, right-click in it to add your first new folder. It's very intuitive. Just drag files in from the Browser and you're set! 💪
