Manage preset data with TF Editor

 

Preset data can be managed on your PC with TF Editor software.

Export:

In TF Editor which is online with your console, you can drag and drop a preset item to your desktop to download a preset file. This is a good way to backup your original preset data one by one. 

File name: Its default name is taken from the title of the preset on the console. Because file name and title on the console UI are independent, renaming the file does not affect to the title shown on the console.

Import:

You can also drag a preset file to the Editor and drop it to upload the file.

Two or more files can be handled at once.

Yamaha is preparing to provide new preset files from the TF web site.
I have some useful ideas for channel preset. I would share them with you soon from this blog.

TF Editor V1.10 released

TF Editor V1.10 for Windows has been released.
TF Editor is primarily for off-line edit at preparation and online remote control at operating a console.

It is important for managing your preset files too.
While Editor is online, you can export or import preset files in Library screen. To import a preset file to your console, drug a source file to the Editor window and drop it in the list of preset library. To export a preset file from your console, select a preset in the list, then, drug and drop it to destination on your desktop.
Of course, you can pre-configure your Library offline. Drug and drop files between Editor and your local preset library. Then, save the whole setting as a console file or make the Editor online with synchronizing direction of "PC to Console".

When you install TF Editor to a Windows 8 tablet PC, it can be a wireless remote controller. It allows touch control similar to StageMix. Some of parameters are little small for touch control. We recommend to use StageMix for quick remote control but I think Editor is enough in some cases.

Since its UI screen is very much same as TF console, it could be a good tool to learn TF console operation.

Please download and try it!
