– anything you can do with a standard document or file. These files should, however,
only be opened by MX-Edit Editor/Librarian software to prevent corruption.
SToRING A PRoGRAM
To store a program into one of the User program locations in the MX-Edit Library
(and the corresponding location in the MX400’s physical memory), open the program
you wish to store. With the Program Editor window active, click
Device
, then
Store
Program
. The
Store to Device
dialog appears, allowing you to choose the User
program location and program name to store with it. Be aware that storing a program
in this manner will over-write the program previously stored in that location, both in
the MX-Edit Library and the MX400 itself. Click
Save
to store to the selected User pro-
gram location. To cancel the operation, click
Cancel
, or close the
Store to Device
dialog box.
To rename a User program in the Library, right-click on its name in the Library win-
dow and select
Rename
. Type in the new name and press
Enter
to save the change.
Since the Factory programs can never be over-written, you cannot store to nor rename
a Factory program location. You may edit a Factory program, but it must be stored to a
User program location.
ARChIvING
Archiving is a powerful tool for preserving the current state of your MX400. When you
archive the MX400, all of its presets and global settings are sent to the computer and
saved to a file. When an archive is restored, the MX400 is configured exactly how it
was when you archived it. This allows you to not only create safety backups, but create
unique configurations for various purposes. For example, you might want to create
a setup specifically for that gig you’re playing on the weekend, but still keep all your
favorite studio presets intact. Use MX-Edit’s Backup feature to archive the MX400’s
settings, then modify and store anything and everything you want, without worrying
about reprogramming all your previous programs and settings.
To archive the MX400, click
Device
and select
Backup
. A warning will appear,
advising you that a full Backup may take a few minutes, and asking whether you wish
to proceed. To cancel without creating a Backup archive, click
Cancel
or close the
dialog box. To proceed, click
OK
. A progress bar appears at the bottom of the MX-
Edit screen, indicating that a Bulk Dump is in process. When all the MX400 data is
received, a
Save
dialog box appears. The default file name is the current day and date
(e.g.
Backup Wednesday, April 27, 2005
) with the file extension .m2a (MX400
Archive file) for Windows ® , or .syx for Mac ® . Click
Save
to store the Backup Archive
file.
To restore a saved archive, click
Device
and select
Restore
. When prompted, select
an MX400 archive file, and click
Open
. MX-Edit then sends the MX400 archive to your
MX400, replacing all the data in the hardware with the archived data.
Note
: It is a good idea to create a new Backup archive file anytime you plan to restore
the MX400 from a previous archive session.
