Fastest way to test many downloaded presets with HD500X?

[mara17]

I downloaded >100 HD500X presets, and would like to test them. My User2 bank is empty, so for me solution 'pick 64 presets and fill User2 with them' would be optimal. However, only way I can find is load each file one by one in HD500X edit. Is there some faster way to do it?

And because I am programmer, also decription how to construct 5xb file from bunch of 5xe, or accurate description of file formats would be great answer.

Drag and drop

I mean, it is still 1 at a time. But it goes faster.

At the top of EDIT, you save a bundle instead of a file. 

Ok, sure, you meant creating one from scratch on your computer to load as a bundle, but I gave you the correct answer.

Drag & drop is good point.

And yeah, I sure meant creating bundle with some helper program/script. I can write it myself, but description of file format would help much.

I don't know your setup, so it may not make sense to do this... 

 

You can use EDIT in offline mode (without the Pod connected).

Add your patches - it will be a little faster because you don't have to sync with the device. 

Save as a bundle. 

Load the bundle the next time you hook up. 

 

 

See, for me, my stuff isn't hooked up all the time. I can sit here while typing to you and do that kind of stuff. In fact, I do it quite often - creating setlists for the next show. And then, poof, it is all ready to go.
