Presets - RME Audio Hammerfall RPM User Manual

15.7 Presets

TotalMix includes 8 factory presets, stored within the program. But the presets can be changed
at any time, because TotalMix stores and reads the changed presets from the files
preset11.mix to preset81.mix. These files are found in the hidden directory Documents and
Settings, <Username>, Local Settings, Application Data, RME TotalMix. The first number
indicates the current preset, the second number the current card/system.
This method offers two major advantages:
Presets modified by the user will not be overwritten when reinstalling or updating the driver
The factory presets remain unchanged, and can be reloaded anytime.
The original factory preset can be reloaded by holding down the Ctrl-key and clicking on any
preset button. Alternatively the files described above can be renamed, moved to a different
directory, or being deleted.
The 8 factory presets offer not only a useful functionality for TotalMix, but also a pretty good
base to modify them to your personal needs.
