DEFAULT PRESET LOCATIONS
The following locations will describe where you can find the MD3 presets. The presets
are stored in a folder that is unique to each plug-in:
The plug-in’s own preset handling is storing the presets in the following locations:
Mac OS
Factory Presets:
/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/MD3/Presets/
/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/BrickWall Limiter/Presets/
User Presets:
~/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/MD3/Presets/
~/Library/Application Support/TC Electronic/BrickWall Limiter/Presets/
Windows
Factory Presets:
{System Drive}/Program Files/TC Electronic/MD3/Presets/
{System Drive}/Program Files/TC Electronic/BrickWall Limiter/Presets/
User Presets:
My Documents/TC Electronic/MD3/Presets/
My Documents/TC Electronic/BrickWall Limiter/Presets/
• To delete a file, simply move it to the 'Trash' or 'Recycle bin'.
• To create a new sub-folder that appears in the plug-in menu, simply create a new
folder in the plug-in folder that resides in the PRESETS folder of the MD3/BrickWall
default preset location.
NOTE: A folder will not appear in the Preset File Menu unless it has at least one pre-
set inside.
CONVERTING MD3 PRESETS FROM SYSTEM 6000
In case you are the happy owner of the MD3 algorithm for System 6000, here is
something to get you in an even better mood: The MD3 plug-in is able to read your
System 6000 presets.
In order to convert presets from System 6000 to MD3, you need to store the System
6000 presets in a preset file. The file extension has to be either ".syx" (for example:
MyPresets.syx) or .mid for a MIDI file.
The easiest way to export System 6000 presets is to use the "export to file" function
from the Icon Editor for Mac/Windows (requires version 3.5 or higher).
Alternatively, you can save a bank to a floppy disk (System 6000 only) or do a SysEx-
Dump to a MIDI file in your sequencer.
