Bug? Hot-Swap does not jump to preset/sample in use anymore

Post by Hokuspokus » Tue Oct 15, 2024 7:47 pm

For example I load the MIDI-Effect "MPE to MIDI.adv" into a track. If I now click on the Hot-Swap button, the blue selector in the browser jumps to the top of the MIDI-Effect list (Arpeggiator folder in my case) instead of "MPE to MIDI.adv" under "MPE Control" (as it would have been the case e.g. under Live 11).
Actually, after clicking on Hot-Swap, I shortly can see the blue selector on "MPE to MIDI.adv" but then jumping further to the top of the list.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Surely this must be a bug and not a feature? Or do I miss something, like a new option?

Can be quite annoying in longer sample/preset lists where you try out things sequentially and have to scroll down and find the currently used sample first.

This happens to me as well. I've filed two support tickets related to hot-swapping. It makes previewing lots of presets very frustrating. I might even return my Push 3 Standalone because of this issue.
