requietus666 Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 greetings, is there a way to suppress the message which appears when loading a preset which doesn't have the corresponding IR(s) with which it was created ? I think it could easily be a yes/no toggle in Preferences -> Presets/IRs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaschaFranck Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Change the IR (or replace the IR block with a cab block), save, done. As far as the message itself goes, it's possibly one of the most stupid messages ever when it comes to software requiring a certain audio file, a perfect demonstration of how incredibly bad the Helix' (or rather HX Edit's) IR management is.

requietus666 Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 it's not that bad that I want to overwrite the preset, no, I accept the fact that it is saved with different IR that is currently on that particular slot (or should I say, name, there is that IR management now), but this message is like screaming "overwrite me with the new settings". I might have that IR in that slot at some time, but now it's now there, and I don't feel that is a need to overwrite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requietus666 Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 it would be much nicer if it had some visual, eg exclamation mark next to IR block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dialog box that warns me that there's an issue with my patch seems much more likely to ensure I do something about that or not. That said, if its a feature you want post it in IdeaScale to see if others feel the same as you, as Line 6 doesn't look here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requietus666 Posted September 29, 2021 Author Share Posted September 29, 2021 yes, we're all different and thought processes differ, obviously thanks, I might visit ideascale some day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 It's not a stupid message at all, and is one of the BETTER features of Helix IR management. If it wasn't there, people would be loading presets and wondering why they didn't sound right, spending hours looking for the problem, then screaming "Why doesn't Helix TELL us when the original IR is missing??? That's just STUPID!!!" Better to know than not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
