I already found myself many times on this situation: I´m working on a project, then I change drastically my settings in a way that the result is not suitable for the actual project but I like those changes may be for another project, so I want to keep them on a different kit.
You know how it is with the A4, amazing things happens every two or tree minutes of tweaking.
So, what my intuition told me was, Save the kit as a different kit, then perform a reload on the old one and continue working.
But, when I proceed this way, it seems changes are saved for both, the new Kit and the old one. Loading the old kit and performing a reload has no effect at all.
What I´m doing so far is saving Track Sounds separately and copying the FX manually, but may be there is an easy way.
So, If I you want to keep your changes on a new kit without altering the original kit how you proceed?
Keeping a constant backup of the original kit is not on the table.
Oh, no, of course not.
In my example I explicitly said “save to a different kit” that implies a different kit position. Anyway I tried again, and it worked!
It seems that I was performing the reload on the new kit instead of the old one, I forgot that when you "save a kit on a different kit position, the new kit is automatically linked to the working pattern. I did this error a couple of times on my first days with the A4 then I assumed it was just like that.
So thanks a lot!
I wish there was a shortcut that was simply “save new kit to pattern”
so if you’re jamming… you have a kit saved on a01… using kit 1
and you move to a02… so it brings with it kit 1 in its current state… you do some tweaking… have a new sound you like… just being able to do a button combo that saved the kit as a new kit and auto named it like kit1pat02 in the next available slot… that would be a massive workflow enhancer for me…
