Retrieve LUA from Electra One

This has probably been asked, but I can’t find it and I’m slightly stuck …

Chrome pushed an update. I update as normal, but in the process, my editing session with the Electra One is gone and reset back to yesterday morning. The preset is sitting on the Electra One with a lot of changes, but the browser does not see the connection.
If I unplug to get it reestablished, I don’t want to lose what is currently running.

So, 2 questions - how to save on the Electra One my current preset. and
two - is there a way to pull back the entire project from the E1 back to the computer?

thanks all.

@oldgearguy, there is an import function in the editor but it will not work, if you have an older version of the preset stored in the web app.

Sending the sysexes below will make E1 dump the data back:

  • 0xF0 0x00 0x21 0x45 0x02 0x01 0xF7 get the Preset
  • 0xF0 0x00 0x21 0x45 0x02 0x0C 0xF7 get the Lua

https://docs.electra.one/developers/midiimplementation.html#get-a-preset

do not forget to strip the sysex data from the received files.

Martin, thank you. I will report back when I’m back on the computer.

EDIT - all good; looks like I was able to get everything back to the computer.
Now I can piece it back and continue the work.

thanks for the super-quick response.
