gandolf203 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Hello all, Newbie here with the HD500X. Tried the manual and a search but cannot find out how to simply erase a patch I do not like in HD edit. I have a patch in setlist 3, bank 04A I wish to delete and start over with a whole new one, but don't know how. Any suggestions? Thank you for your support!!!

TheRealZap Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 you cant really remove them... just copy one of the empty ones over and save... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smrybacki Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 you cant really remove them... just copy one of the empty ones over and save... Put this one in the same category as a missing power button lol... :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 yeah kind of strange... but basically all the fields exist always... they either have data in them or not... the empty patch just has all neutral data in it... but its still all zeroes instead of all ones... etc... Put this one in the same category as a missing power button lol... :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but creating a small function to "zero all" in a patch is simple enough, or at least it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 maybe.. but its not that hard to copy an empty preset either... at least with the edit program. would probably be a royal PITA to deal with on the device itself for entire setlists. I think at one point a user posted an empty setlist for just this reason... might have been the older forum software though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at one point a user posted an empty setlist for just this reason... might have been the older forum software though. This also is true, however consider that maybe the average user might not immediately think of doing that, instead choosing to hunt high and low through the manual for how to 'zero" a patch, get frustrated and post WTF here lol... May the circle we just travelled be unbroken lol... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radatats Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 It's not enough to just zero out the blocks, you would have to rearrange them all in the right order, put the empty amp block back to single path, zero the mixer and pan to 100, as well as whatever current input settings you had set up. What's the big deal anyway? Just go to Set List in HD Edit and drag an empty patch over to the one you want. Or you can create a default empty patch with your own settings. I just saved a whole empty setlist and when I want to start over I just open the empty set list and start from scratch. Damn, now we are going to lollipop because they didn't add a special button to delete a patch??? WTF... That's the main reason I never bought a Dumble... it didn't have a button to zero out the knobs. Who knew? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radatats Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 just seems like these boards have devolved into b*tch and wh*ne sessions more than help sessions... the hype and anti-climax for AMPLIFI didn't help anything... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie_Watt Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 You can create a minimal patch and save it to your PC. Then you can load it to any location you want to clear out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherDeLorme Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 How to create all empty presets: don't hook the Pod to your PC with usb cable. You then get the offline mode with all empty presets and setlists. You can save those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandolf203 Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 Thanks guys! I had not thought of simply dragging an unused preset to cover the one I made. And yes, I did search high and low throughout all the manuals to figure out how to delete a file. Wish Line 6 had put that in there somewhere.....
