Project Sets

Your EP holds nine projects at a time. A Project Set is a named, ordered collection of up to nine projects, a complete device load you can save once and drop back onto the device whenever you need it. Think of it as a preset for the whole machine, rather than one project at a time.

Project Sets is a top-level tool in the sidebar, under Library. It builds on your Project Library: a Set is a list of projects from that library, held in the order they load onto the device (starting at slot P01). Project Sets is a Pro feature and works with the EP-40, EP-133 and EP-1320.

The quickest way to make your first Set is to grab what's already loaded. With your device connected, click Capture Device, give the Set a name, and EP-PatchStudio reads the nine slots into your library and builds a Set from them in one step. Whatever you had loaded is now saved, named and ready to bring back any time.

You can also assemble a Set from projects already in your library:

1. Click New Set and give it a name you'll recognise ("Friday headline", not P01-P09).
2. Use Add projects to pull projects in from your library.
3. Reorder them with the up and down arrows. Order matters: projects load onto the device starting at slot P01, so put them in your running order.

Rename a Set with the pencil icon, or remove one with the trash icon. A Set holds at most nine projects, the same as the device.

Click Load to Device and the whole Set streams onto the device in order. Because that overwrites the nine slots, EP-PatchStudio offers a safety net first:

• Full device backup (recommended): takes a complete, one-click-restorable backup into your in-app backup library before loading. This option is on the desktop app.
• Snapshot projects to my library: saves whatever is currently on the device as a new Set, so nothing you had loaded is lost.
• Skip: loads straight over the top with no guard. Only use this if you know the current load is already saved.

Pick your safety option and confirm with Back up & Load, Snapshot & Load or Load Anyway.

Back up Set exports every project in the Set to a single .zip file on your computer. That's handy for archiving a finished live set, or moving a loadout to another machine.
