New Purchase HD500X

[roberto_palitto]

Dear All,

I'm lucky owner of HD500 which I use in studio and live. Perfect !

I have decided to buy the new HD500X to use for live situation in order to keep my HD5500 just for studio.

Now the question is : may I build my presets with the HD500X and transfer the file to HD500, or I cannot convert HD500X in HD500 file ?

 

Thank in advance for your suggestions/ comments.

 

Ciao

Roberto

for the most part you can interchange the presets....

however if you build something on the 500x that uses the extra horsepower it may not work on the 500.

as long as you keep that in mind and accept the limitation... you should be fine.

Thank you for the fast reply.

I notice that the extention of the HD500 file is    ***.h5e and the HD500X file has ***.5xe.

Is there any patch to convert from   .5xe to .h5e ? ( to hd500x file to hd500 file ).

 

Or HD500 is able to ready even    .5xe files

 

tnx

Roberto

not automatic... you can change the file extension.. drag and drop... or use the 3rd party utility here:

keep in mind that all of these methods work for the most part, but is not officially a supported operation.

Changing the file extention you mean simply re-write ?

[TheRealZap]

yeah just rename the file to have the same 3 characters after the . as in filename.ext to filename.xt2 etc

Thanks a lot.

 

Once I will have it I'will try it.
