Importing a Configuration
In this scenario, there may or may not be any configurations in the MP Install App Storage location on the Windows PC. The user may have been
provided a configuration file created by a colleague or on another device that they wish to continue working on or deploy to hardware. The user will
most likely be working offline.
Best practice steps to get started:
1. Store your file somewhere accessible by Windows Explorer and browse to that location.
2. Ensure MP Install is not running. Exit it if it was.
3. Double-click the configuration file. MP Install will launch and import the configuration into the specified App Storage location. A message will
convey the import operation is taking place and notify when complete.
4. Click Menu, then Configurations.
5. Select the imported Configuration and click Recall.
6. Get to work.
Transferring a Configuration to an MP-M Using a USB Drive
If a configuration has been saved to a USB drive from an MP-M, the drive may be used, as is to transfer the configuration to another MP-M. If the
Configuration is copied to a USB drive, the USB drive must be prepared as follows.
Prepare a USB drive.
• If an MP-M is available, it may be used to format the drive. Menu > Settings > Format USB Drive. The directory structure will be created by the
MP-M.
• If no MP-M is available, format the drive as FAT32 using the computer.
• Create a folder on the drive and name it MPM_Settings.
NOTE!:
MP-M mixers with firmware versions earlier than 1.1 search for the Configuration files in a folder named TouchMix-Presets. If
this is the case you may update the MP-M firmware to the latest version or use a folder name TouchMix-Presets on the USB drive.
The Configurations Screen includes a summary of these steps.
