darkcloud1 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 In reading the "How to save and load your POD HD500X presets....it states in the last bullet point "Use the Save Panel options to "send" the desired presets.....This action permanently overwrites the respective Presets within your device's internal memory." WHERE is the Save Panel? I can only see "Save as" from the pull-down menu.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 It's up in the upper left hand corner of the HD500X Edit window. It says SEND and RECEIVE in light brown lettering. Beneath that are the options Selected, Set List, and All for each one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkcloud1 Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 I'm confused, sorry for being a bonehead... Which one of those buttons Saves the patch to the POD? I want to keep the same patches after I turn it off and back on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 pretty much all of the SEND buttons.... you can send one... the setlist... or all.... I'm confused, sorry for being a bonehead...

darkcloud1 Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 Okay, thanks...so the SEND = save? I would never have guessed. Does the RECEIVE = delete? jut kidding, thanks for the prompt answer. FYI - for some awesome premade patches this is the best place (for some reason it won't let me paste the link) glenndelane.com.patch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 receive does delete what was temporarily affected by your changes with edit... it basically will bring the unaltered patch from the pod back to the edit program (UNDO might make more sense than delete) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 The SEND/RECEIVE terminology is accurate because it reflects the fact that two different devices are involved when using the Edit program. The Edit program is running on your computer, so it does SEND and RECEIVE the preset information to/from the HD500 device. The SAVE terminology (there is no DELETE) in the Edit program refers to copying the preset information from your computer's program RAM to the hard drive - exactly what the Save command does for any computer program. You would quickly get confused if you expected that using the Edit program's Save command actually transferred/sent the info to the HD500 device. The SAVE terminology makes perfect sense when you are using the HD500 device itself rather than the Edit program; the HD500 SAVE command copies preset information from its RAM to its internal hard drive, just as you would expect. But the difference is important, and reflected by the different terminology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkcloud1 Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 Thanks Real Zap. Silverhead: I don't think we are speaking about the same issue, I understand what send and receive do and mean and never asked. As stated in my first post...the Line6 instructions online (saving patches) say go to the save panel, not Send or Receive so naturally, one would look for the word save and the save panel. It would be accurate to say in order to save the patch to the unit, go to the send and receive panel which functions as the save panel; or just take the word save out in the heading and explanation and use the correct terminology.

ext1jdh Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Send and receive are sitting in a "Panel" of the program where you can "Save" presets either to your computer or to your unit. The terminology is correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
