icu81b4 3 Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) Hi, I'm struggling to save my own presets in the Sonitus fx products, I think they are stored in Registry settings so not easy able find in file manager, for eg:- When using the Sonitus Compressor, I try and save using the 'Preset->Preset Manager-> Add-> (new preset name+bank)-> Save It is then listed in the Bank - but as soon as you delete the Compressor, then re-open it, the preset you have just 'saved' has gone. Anyone know why - please? Cheers Edited November 18, 2020 by icu81b4 Solved Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icu81b4 3 Posted November 12, 2020 So..... I'm guessing folk don't use Sonitus fx products much, I know they aren't bright and shiny and look rubbish, but they work well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Perry 378 Posted November 12, 2020 From memory, it's a permissions issue with UAC, because the files are saved in a Program Files subfolder. You either need to run as admin (try not to!) or use the drop-down menu at the top of the window to save presets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icu81b4 3 Posted November 12, 2020 Thanks for the reply Kevin, I do use the drop down menu and I always run as Admin. but they still don't save. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scook 2,597 Posted November 12, 2020 I don't run CbB as administrator While I use Sontius plug-ins I have not saved a preset in some time. I just tried using the Sonitus Compressor and although it added the present and bank during the session it did not persist to the next session. In order to save the preset to C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\Shared Plugins\FxCompressorDX.ini I modified the permissions on the file by right-clicking the file opening Properties on the context menu adding Write for Users Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
