    Merging Presets

    Hey All,

    Is there an easy way to merge presets from 2 different Catalyst shows?

    Thoughts?

    Cheers

    Chris

    depends upon your level of experiece with XML...

    possible - but difficult
    (and not recommended)

    DO ensure you backup your shows before attempting anything - and suggest you try with an offline copy first

    Yes, there is. It's very dangerous if you mess up.

    You open the CatalystPreset.txt file and copy presets from one to the other making sure to replace the preset numbers you overwrite.

    I really strongly don't suggest doing this. It's very dangerous and bad practice.
