I made this reminder video for myself how to re-save all presets for a new release and thought I'd share. Enjoy.
Thanks heaps John. Just a note to anyone else, if you select a parameter that you hardly use (ie output channel D) once saved, presets will revert back to what was saved originally (ie channel A)
I'll see if inspiration strikes to remake this. This is currently not a video that can be posted to YT, it's an animated PNG (why it's autoplaying and repeating).
This is not a backup, but a way to quickly save multiple presets under the installed firmware to get gapless to work for example.
You definitely want to do a full backup before installing new firmware. In case something goes wrong you can restore the previous firmware and this backup and your system is identical to before you attempted the firmware upgrade.
Ahh, got it. Thank you for the detailed explanation. I've definitely been creating full backups prior to firmware updates and after significant changes to presets and custom layouts etc. I hadn't previously noticed the marker mentioned but I'm sure now that I know it's there, it'll keep me from being able to fall asleep at night. Damn it, man!
It bugs me too. Thanks for the post.
I did it on my YT channel but can't remember the exact video because is inside one of my firmware updates videos.
How can I slow down the video or pause it. Its moving to fast and have no idea what you are doing in it.
Is there a reason that the update cannot do this for us automatically, without changing some random setting for all? Seems like the computer could just ask to re-save, which I'd guess to be 99.999% desired at large. This obligatory user step is pretty weird, IMO.
