Save preset disabled in Stadium Native

[guix]

Seems I don't have the capability to save a preset to a user bank in Staidum Native

Why would that be?

SAVE PRESET AS creates the actual preset, after which you can use SAVE PRESET to overwrite it.

Put another way, SAVE PRESET is only used to overwrite an existing preset.

A bit counter intuitive and not how most programs work, but simply using SAVE PRESET AS resolves your problem.

No no, What I mean is I can only save a preset to file. before I could save it to a bak withotu having to save it to a file.

 

And yes Save preset in grey by default brakes almost 40 years of standards in windows x- )

That would be because Stadium Native does not have the concept of ‘banks’ of presets. It uses a designated USER preset folder on your computer. There is also a set of Factory presets but these cannot be overwritten or Saved. They can only be Saved As a User preset. All presets you Save or Save As are stored only as files in the USER preset folder. Only one preset at a time exists in an instance of Stadium Native; you select which one by loading/opening a file from the Factory or User folder.

 

I suggest you read the Presets section of the manual.

SAVE PRESET AS opens the Presets folder in Windows Explorer and you have the option to create a new User folder where you can save presets. They just only created the USER 1 Folder as a default.
