[RWP] Loading and Combining Patches and Bank Files

In Reaper's default dialog for importing and exporting FXP patch files
and FXB bank files, that you can display; in the FX Routing page; by
clicking on a button 1 tap press down from a VST synth's list of
presets; you can load bank files 1 at a time.
This is okay, since a single bank file might contain anywhere from 30 to
560 presets, or more.
FXP preset files are a different matter.
When you focus onto an FXP file and press enter; you load a single
preset, 1 sound, into the list of presets.
The loaded preset goes onto the slot you are on when you load the
preset, and you can read the name of the newly loaded preset in the
synths preset list.
What I'd like to do is somehow load a batch of presets at once, into
empty slots, so I could somehow combine all useful presets into 1 list
of presets, then save it as an FXB bank file.
I have tried selecting 30 FXP presets, but the file loader will only
import a single preset.
I've also tried to save the current list of presets in a synth; by
selecting the whole list of files, then clicking on Export as FXP/FXB,
but only a single preset is saved.
In other words, the saved FXB bank file only contains the single preset
that you had in focus at the moment of saving.
Am I missing something here, or is there another preferred method of
combining FXP presets into FXB bank files?
Maybe there is a utility one can use outside Reaper; to open bank files
to view their FXP presets inside, delete useless ones, paste in ones you
want, then save the new list as an FXB bank?
Thanks for any tips on doing this,
Indi
