I look through them all! presets are a great way to find inspiration. I love to get all tweaky and make my own sounds from scratch, but I also love to find something that already exists in the world that inspires me, it can be a sample from an old record, or a preset lovingly crafted by a sound designer. over the years i have found great presets in every catagory, sometimes you find a synth with only one good preset in it, but that can be the one that inspires a song, and thats what it's all about, finding something that jumpstarts the creative process and gets the music flowing.
i guess i'll take this opportunity to share my current favorite preset. in ableton live the "operator" synth default setting is a lovely, powerful, simple sound that is really great for classic techno or hip hop bass. try it out!
