already contain a copy of the plugin(s) in your Preset, click the With Plugins checkbox.
16. If you want to export your Preset with its associated plugins, check the With Plugins
box. When you’re creating your first Preset, you will absolutely want to do this. Later,
you
may
be
editing
Banks
that
already
contain
the
plugin(s)
in
this
Preset,
in
which
case
it
will
be
faster
to
leave
this
box
unchecked.
17. Click Export. A file dialog will open. Click Export again.
18. Copy the .vfxlibrary folder from its current location to a removable USB memory device,
such
as
a
USB
stick
or
external
hard
drive.
Usually
you
can
do
this
by
dragging
it
from
its
current
location
with
the
mouse.
19. Safely remove the USB memory device from your computer. Corruption of VFX library
files
can
occur
if
you
do
not
safely
remove
USB
memory
devices
from
your
host
computer.
20. Turn on the V-‐Machine and wait while it powers up.
21. Insert the connector for the USB memory device into a rear-‐panel USB jack on the
V-‐Machine.
22. Press both buttons in the top row of the V-‐Machine’s front panel. The System Global
Settings menu appears.
23. Press the right arrow button in the top row once. You should now see a screen that
begins
“Menu:
Import.”
Press
the
left
arrow
button
in
the
third
row,
beside
the
word
Import.
24. After your plugin Bank is imported, you should see the words New Bank in the top row
of the display. The second row should contain the name you gave to the Preset. In the
third
line,
you
should
see
a
four-‐character
abbreviation
for
the
name
of
the
plugin
(such
as
acEU
for
u-‐he
ACE),
followed
by
the
name
or
number
of
a
parameter.
25. Connect your MIDI keyboard to the V-‐Machine and play the preset.
Okay,
that
was
quite
a
few
steps
–
but
the
more
you
create,
save,
and
export
Banks
and
Presets,
the
easier
it
will
become.
Hopefully,
you’re
now
able
to
enjoy
hearing
your
new
Preset
on
the
V-‐Machine.
However,
several
things
can
go
wrong
during
the
process
described
above.
For
instance:
If
SM
Pro
Audio
has
not
yet
made
a
Wizard
File
available
for
your
plugin,
the
plugin
may
import
successfully
in
the
VFX
Application
software,
but
may
not
be
able
to
operate
in
the
V-‐Machine.
●
If
the
Wizard
File
you
attempt
to
use
does
not
match
the
version
number
of
the
plugin,
again,
the
plugin
may
not
work
in
the
V-‐Machine.
●
If
the
plugin
requires
more
memory
than
is
available
in
the
V-‐Machine,
it
may
fail
to
import
from
the
USB
memory
device.
●
If
the
plugin
requires
a
sample
library,
this
will
need
to
be
present
on
the
memory
device
attached
to
the
V-‐Machine.
