Setup Files may contain more than one preset. For example, a single file can contain all
the presets for a session. When you open a Setup File, all its setups become part of
your Load pop-up menu for fast access. This can be particularly useful with multiple
instances of a plugin in a single session. By saving all the settings you create into a
single Setup File, they can all be quickly available for every instance of that plugin.
Loading Presets and Setups
Click on the Load button to see the Load pop-up menu. The menu is divided into four
sections. If a section is not currently available it will not appear in the Load pop-up menu.
Open Preset File…
Select to open any setup or preset file, whether from the Library or
your own creations.
‘Filename.xps’:
Displays any currently loaded Setup File and its presets.
Factory Presets:
Displays the default Factory Presets.
User Presets:
Displays any loaded User Presets.
Saving Presets and Setups
Click on the Save button to see the Save pop-up menu. Four options are available. If an
option is not currently available it will be grayed out and inaccessible.
Save to New File…
Select this to start a new Setup file. There are two
prompts - first for the setup filename, then for the
preset name. You must provide a name for both the
setup file and the preset. Click OK (ENTER) to
complete the save. It is a good idea to create a
folder in which to save several setup files for a
project.
Save ‘File Name’ – “Preset Name”
Overwrites the settings of the loaded preset
(whether a User Preset or a preset from a Setup
File) with the current settings. If a Setup File is
currently loaded, the name of the Setup File is
displayed followed by the name of the preset itself.
If a User Preset is loaded, its name is displayed.
