Transferring Files & Settings
Over a USB connection, you can transfer rig, setlist,
model preset, loop, and/or impulse response (IR)
files between your computer and the HeadRush
MX5.
We recommend creating a backup copy of your files
to your computer before you make any changes.
Important:
Do not disconnect or power off the HeadRush MX5
during the process.
Any unsupported files will be ignored.
You cannot transfer a folder or .zip/archive folder
to/from HeadRush MX5. Instead, transfer any
supported files directly.
We recommend organizing the file structure of your
rigs,
setlists,
model
response files on your computer so that it's identical
to the file structure as shown on the HeadRush MX5
"drive."
To transfer files between the HeadRush MX5 and your computer:
1.
Connect your computer to the HeadRush MX5's USB port using a standard USB cable.
2.
With your computer powered on, power on the HeadRush MX5 using the power switch.
Tap the button in the upper-right corner of the screen and then tap Global Settings.
3.
In the Global Settings screen, tap the button in the upper-right corner of the screen, and
4.
tap USB Transfer. On your computer, the HeadRush MX5 will appear as a mass-storage
device called HeadRush.
Windows users: If this is the first time you've connected it to this computer, you may need
to wait a minute while it installs the class-compliant drivers.
5.
Open the HeadRush drive. You can now freely click and drag contents between
HeadRush and your computer. Note that any changes you make to the contents of your
HeadRush are immediate and cannot be cancelled.
6.
IMPORTANT: When you are finished transferring contents, you must unmount/eject the
HeadRush drive from your computer. File corruption may occur if the drive is not properly
ejected before continuing.
7.
After the drive has been ejected, tap Sync on
your HeadRush MX5 to "commit" any
changes you made to the contents of the
HeadRush drive. An additional prompt will
appear to confirm you have ejected the drive.
Tap Proceed to continue or Cancel to
continue accessing files on your computer.
As the HeadRush MX5 analyzes and imports
the files, a meter on the display will indicate
its progress. The normal Global Settings
screen will reappear when the process is
finished. Do not disconnect or power off
HeadRush MX5 during the sync process.
