Nuendo 14. I have always used FX chain presets. Lately I have been experimenting with Track Presets. I’m on Windows. I know where they are. I can see them in the Explorer. There are files called “Drum Room.trackpreset” but I can’t load them - they don’t appear when I right click on a track and browse. It’s very frustrating. I have two filter options - Logical and Attribute. I reset them and I get a flash of something, then nothing. Can anyone assist me please? Thanks very much.
Try clicking the folder icon at the top.
Thanks. I tried that. I looked at them on my Mac. I see that the filters and folder structure allow the program to combine user presets with factory. I think something has gone wrong. I also saw a post that said if you manually adjust these user folders, corruption might occur. I think I might need to reset my Appdata folder.
I’ve had this issue and a workaround (eventually I didn’t have to do it anymore whenever MediaBay straightened itself out) is to browse directly to the folder with the presets in MediaBay and enable Write Protection on them.
Can I bump this? I have done a lot of experimentation and Nuendo 14 does not even see my .trackpreset files. Can an admin tell me what to do? Save my Roaming and reinstall? It’s really annoying. Thank you.
Have you tried to rescan in mediabay? You could delete the mediabay database file and fully rescan before trying to reinstall. Before all that, you could also set those files as read only in the OS file explorer, as that is the same as setting the Write Protected attribute, just to see if that allows them to show up.
Problem: User track preset files do not appear when browsing. The solution for me was a complete re-install of latest Nuendo. In the attached screen shots, you will see the normal load track preset view. User presets are displayed with factory presets. The second image shows the icon of a user saved track preset file. I lost both of these views. Renaming my preferences folder and creating a new one made no difference. The reinstall worked. Support said this is not common.
In MediaBay it was the same as the load track preset. I don’t know where the mediabay database file is. This always looked like a corrupt file association to me. It was a fairly quick fix to backup the prefs folder and then uninstall/re-install Nuendo. My program has been through three updates from install. The reinstall with a complete new version fixed whatever was wrong.
I want to update this because I found the error. And it’s a user error. I sometimes use a program called CCleaner on my PC, very sparingly. I use it before creating a whole clone of my C Drive, a process which has saved my bacon many times. This process cleans the registry of removed files. YMMV. Now when I went to run it recently I examined what it was going to do and noticed a new addition. It was about to delete an ‘unused’ file extension called .trackpreset! So that is the mystery solved. I think last time I didn’t see that and I lost the file extension and wrecked the library. Mea Culpa. Be careful with the Registry, as they always say . . .
