Kontrast presets only hint at their sound through their names, and a big library quickly becomes a long list to click through. Finding the one that fits your track usually means auditioning preset after preset.
Presetti listens to your Kontrast presets and lets you search them by sound. Play or sing a reference into the mic, drop a sample, or pick a Kontrast preset, and Presetti finds the ones that sound closest.

Why preset names are not enough when you are looking for a sound
Preset libraries are full of evocative names, but they are a poor way to remember and rediscover the sound you actually need.
