clivea Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hi folks, I have purchased some very good presets from a guy (he's in hospital with the coronavirus, poor chap, so unfortunately I can't speak to him). In his docs. he says that the IR's (supplied seperately), should be installed, if not the presets will not sound as they should do - I have a problem loading them .... I am 'clicking' on IMPULSES, and dragging the IR's across from my desktop, but as soon as I drag them across, the list changes to 'User 1', so they will not go in the IR's list. Am I doing something wrong???? Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Can't say why that isn't working.... but have you tried using the Import function rather than drag/drop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivea Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Wow!!!! that was a quick response my friend - thanks a lot. When I 'click'; on RESONSES the line 'COPY - PASTE - IMPORT - EXPORT - CLEAR' is all greyed out, so I cannot select IMPORT???? Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_m Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hard to say exactly. Could you post a screenshot of what you’re seeing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 in HX Edit I see the Import/Export options greyed out until I select an IR slot. Then they become active. You can import several IRs at once - they will fill the slots downward beginning with the selected slot. Then again, I can drag/drop IRs successfully and you can't seem to. So whatever is affecting that might also be affecting the Import/Export functions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivea Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 Sorry for delay - I've had to go out, but I'll send the s/shots when I get back. Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivea Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 SCREEN SHOT 2.pdf Shot 1, is when I open the IR's folder on my desktop and try to drag the IR's across into the IMPULSES file. The IMPULSES file changes to USER 1. Shot 2, is when I select IMPORT, showing my IR's folder empty. Clive SCREEN SHOT 1.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your File Explorer window, go over to the View tab on top, and in the Show/Hide panel, click the box that says "File name extensions". IR files should have a .wav extension. Helix presets have a .hlx extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivea Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 You're spot on Phil. They're presets. Now I don't understand why he says they should be installed for the presets to work properly????? Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is right, though, in that you’ll need the same IR files he’s using in order for presets that use those IRs to sound right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivea Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 You could be right Phil. I know that he has a business partner. I'll try and track him down and see if he may be able to give some answers. I'll let you know. Clive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
