hi guys, i just cannot find the presets on my windows 10 PC, i checked documents, the installation folders and the vst folders, i wanted to save my presets seperately and also check if the newer Moog Versions of Arturia (i got Mini V2 and V3, obviously i wanna use V3) can import them and if they sound identical.

thx, appreciate it alot that you guys help me out getting all old projects saved and loaded! :tu:

Check to make sure you can view 'hidden folders' first. Then look under C/Program Data/Arturia/Mini V3.

Edit: incomplete info - I misunderstood the post.

The presets are not compatible. At some point, there was a converter - VC5 Preset Converter - but it seems to be gone.

Image

i looked up these files and didnt find them.
i also went to EXPORT PRESET and then it exports a .minibank file but when you import it it doesnt save the settings and the presets correctly.

these presets need to be somewhere dont they?

they may only be saved as a bank for search, not the individual presets?
:ud:

although, isn't that the onboard factory sounds? should just be included

C:\ProgramData\Arturia\Minimoog V\autoload

C:\ProgramData\Arturia\Minimoog V\save

They used the Xils files save/load method so it's very hard to figure out what is what.

BTW this is based on the one they gave away when they could no longer use the minimoog name and went for Mini V2.

hey guys, i still didnt get ANY reply from arturia, it would be a pain to manually try to recreate all old Minimoog Presets to the latest Minimoog :/ does someone have the preset converter maybe and succesfully converted?

running the preset updater and after hitting SCAN nothing is found, what a crappy tool....

and Arturia's support sucks, i wrote them twice, no replies at all.
