saving HX stomp presets in HX edit

[jprykiel]

Hi friends.
At each new HX stomp's firmware update, it is of course necessary to create a backup. The problem with that is that the backup saves all presets including factory wants, and not only user presets. So when a backup is restored, you can't benefit from new presets that come with the updates. So how can I save just my own presets in HX edit. HX stomp does not hendel set lists, and saving single presets forces you to create one. So I see a contradiction there and I don't know how to get around it.
Thanks for helping.
Cheers,
JPR

When restoring a backup you can select which Setlist to include. After performing the factory reset you will have the new factory setlists. To avoid overwriting them, deselect them before proceeding with the restoration. Select only the User setlists to overwrite from your backup.

 

EDIT: just realized you’re talking about the Stomp -  sorry. But check the HX Edit Restore function using the Stomp. You may be able to select only the User presets to restore, leaving the Factory folder intact.

Before you update, select and export your user presets.

After your update restore everything EXCEPT the presets, then copy and paste your user presets from the folder you exported them to.

I know the stomp XL does have Set Lists... or at least you can save and import setlists.  Surprising the stomp doesn't have that feature.

Helix Native has several folders for storing presets that you can easily drag back and forth with Edit.

The HXS and HXSXL both have only one setlist, but both can export and import setlists. I've never tried importing a setlist from Native, but I don't see why that wouldn't work as long as the presets in the Native setlists are made in HXS compatibility mode.
