8.10.2 Walkthrough: Try A Sound Pack

  1. Open C-e H o p and note the active pack. Select another of kind sound and press P to preview without activating.
  2. Enter with RET and inspect Availability and Provider. Cues may come from the pack, parent, or registered fallback. P previews and S stops.
  3. Press s to return to the manager, then v to validate. Resolve missing files or cues before relying on the pack. Activate with a, return through the browser/menu, and repeat a familiar action such as entering a list.
  4. To retain the selection, open C-e H p p for profiles. N captures a new setup and w deliberately updates the selected profile. Review all fields: this saves more than the sound-pack selection. See Save, Switch, and Share Your Setup.
  5. Restore the original pack by activating it. If the experiment was saved in a profile, restore/update that profile too. Preview alone needs no undo.

For one unwanted cue, change its rule rather than switching every cue in a pack.
