This is a breakout from another thread. This is a commonly complained about “bug” so I thought I would post my findings and workaround here. If you use a Mac and change any preferences on the pedal, you will know that Exporting overrides all preferences back to their default values. I have found a quick workaround for that. See below for the steps I took and the tests I conducted to verify it worked.
Well it seemed to work. I typically change a few default settings.
MIDI Out->Start= Intro
MIDI Out->Sync=While Playing
I verified on my pedal that those were set the way I wanted and copied the contents from the PARAMS folder from the SD card into the PARAMS folder in my BBManager Project in my local Documents folder.
I then Exported the project to my SD card. I was able to verify that my preferences had persisted and did not need to be re-set to my specifications like they normally do after an export.
As a final test, I manually reset to Default Settings using the option on the pedal and verified that my 2 overrides were back to default values (IE NOT the way I like them).
Then I re-exported to the SD card. BBManager then overrode the “default” params on the SD card with MY PARAMS!!! When I put the SD card back into the Beat Buddy, the prefs were all set exactly how I wanted them.
So…it seems to work around the resetting of the preferences on Export issue, you just need to update the WORKSPACE PARAMS folder with the SD card PARAMS contents once you have it set the way you want. Then your exports will include your preferred PARAMS setup. And if you change your params again (or create a new project), just re-copy the PARAMS contents over again.
