Hiya,
Specs wise, you can propagate a new list of Factory Preset by firing a
notification that kAudioUnitProperty_FactoryPresets has changed 8-)
Then, a well behaved host shouldn't hesitate to query this property
once again and update its preset menu.
But I guess, this is not the case currently...
However, unlike VST lingo, IIRC this would account for all instances of
that AU plugin.
Cheers,
;) Urs

Dear list,
I've read many opinions that VST mimics limited abilities of hw
machines. But isn't the AU fixed factory preset list something
restricted, too? Where is the software flexibility - it's main
advantage over hw. It's true that you can have fixed preset list for
simple reverb and work with it without problems, but for synths you
need patches sorted into categories - and to let users manage them, to
add new preset banks - this is what makes them usable. Yes Urs' way is
fine, but this works only for AU only plugins, unless you'll write
your own AU preset handler on other (sw and hw) platforms. But this
way it is AU format which dictates how the things have to be
organized.
