hello pd-users!
i'm using the save.me.mmb abstractions to save multiple presets which are loaded with a hradio as described in the help patch. this works very well but i want to save all the presets in a textfile. the help patch only shows how to save one preset but i would like to save 8 presets in one file. is that possible?

hi!
from what i understand, you could - with some modifications: create a patch that writes the list of presets created in save.me.mmb to a text file.
for inspiration, i would have a look at SSSAD (another state save patch). there's a post with a link to the complete SSSAD resources. it contains an excellent tutorial about saving presets to text files.

i also modified SSSAD to a patch that fits my needs. it looks something like the attached file. hope that helps you!

cheers

(sorry, correction: its SSSAD not SSAD.)

Hi, I do it this way:

Thank you for your replies. You helped me a lot. I've now built a system based on sssad which combines the ideas from your patches and it works perfectly. Thanks alot!
