rd2rk Posted November 20, 2024 Share Posted November 20, 2024 Yes. You also need to update HX Edit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, According to the Release Notes, regarding any new factory presets. OPTIONAL: Performing a factory reset loads the new 3.80 Factory Presets, but restoring from your backup will overwrite these. Spend some time exploring these and export the factory presets you want to keep (or drag them to your desktop). If you have unused setlists in Helix Floor/Rack/LT, you can also export the entire FACTORY 1 bundle for loading into an unused setlist later Remember- Always work on a copy!

jkuche Posted December 17, 2024 Share Posted December 17, 2024 Why is FACTORY 2 bundle not mentioned ? Could/ should we not also treat that the same as FACTORY 1 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could/ should we not also treat that the same as FACTORY 1 ? Hi, There is absolutely no reason why export FACTORY 2 as a bundle is not mentioned, other than, possibly because the majority of the Release Notes are a "cut 'n' paste" job from earlier versions. That text block is the same as the one on the notes for Firmware version 3.50. I guess they must realise that if you're clever enough export FACTORY 1 presets as a bundle, then you will surely be smart enough to be able do the same for whatever other setlist you wish to save. It might be useful to read through the HX Edit Pilot’s Guide 3.80 > pages 27-29 - Creating & Restoring Complete Device Backups, and Extracting Files from a Backup. You can access the guide by clicking on the Question Mark icon in the lower left corner of the HX Edit GUI window, from where you can download a pdf of the information. Hope this helps/makes sense.
