I don't understand: first it tells you to save the Midi Setup and User Effects Setup, and the last one said that cannot be restored. What means that? ...
Hi Vali,
a Genos Backup file (.bup) contains:
• the user-defined
System settings
• the user-defined
MIDI settings
• the
User Effect settings
• the
complete content of the User drive (
with or
without Audiofiles, as stated by the user before)
The System, MIDI and User Effect settings can also be saved as
individual files (System Setup file, MIDI Setup file and User Effect Setup file).
When you save a Backup file (.bup) with a Version before 2.00 and restore this file after updating to V2.00, the user-defined System settings, MIDI settings and User Effect Settings will NOT be restored.
They say that also the "Registration data" will not be restored, but I guess that only the current Reg Bank data is meant here. This data will be lost if not saved to a Bank file, before updating.
I also guess, that the content of the User drive is NOT affected by the Update, because they say "IF you save the Backup data before updating and restore it after updating, ..." (But of course it can not hurt to backup the user drive completely beforehand (preferably in USB storage mode.)
So, the only thing that is LOST are the
User System Settings. They
could be backed up, but this file is useless, because it can NOT be restored on V2.00.
Therefore, I recommend to write down (or make pictures from) your important user-defined System settings (for example Initial Touch, Parameter Lock settings, Song settings, Style settings and so on), before updating.
Best regards,
Chris
