duncann Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Use the Helix application. Select the spot where you want something to load. For me it's always location 001 because I keep a single, one-level-deep folder for IRs I find I like and just add new ones to this folder as I find more that I like. Then click import. On the dialog that opens, browse to where the IRs are and select the one you want to import. You can load more than one at once by selecting the first one and then shift-click the last one. The order they get loaded will be determined by how you see them in file selection dialog. I don't use drag and drop because I've had unpredictable results doing it that way. Maybe that's fixed in the just released 1.03 version of the Helix app, not sure. Specifically for the Redwirez Big Box, there should be a folder named 48KHz-24bit a couple of levels in from the cabinet you want. Use those. You also may want to rename the IRs because if the name is too long, it will be cut off when you import them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arislaf Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Thank you Duncann!! I used to drag & drop, and the helix app closed! I will give it a shot! Thanks a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed they fixed the folder drag and drop in the new 1.03 app. After updating and doing a full reset I just dragged the whole IR folder I had setup into the app and everything loaded perfectly. (Win 7 on an older Dell laptop). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arislaf Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 I don't know guys, I manage to import the cabs only from my desktop.. If I take the cabs from the folder nothing happens and the app closes.. Never mind, thanks both of you for the help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dshow Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Anybody knows why on helix it is not possible to get loaded? Or how to load them? Try to shorten the name. I have found that IRs can not be imported if the name is too long - the program crashes. Also as you found out if the path to the file is too long - the program crashes (like: C:/bla/bla/../../../../some-cab-name-mic-position.wav) I think this is a bug in the Helix application Edit: Just read that that has been fixed. Haven't installed the new version yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
