I can no longer open the Editor Suite; what has happened and how do I fix
this?
In earlier versions, if you closed the Editor and then moved or deleted the last
program file that was loaded (or its parent folder), then this could prevent the Editor
from launching. This was fixed in v3.5.
However, should such a problem ever occur where the Editor Suite continually fails to
launch, or closes immediately after launch, then please do the following (replacing
the italicized text with your own username):
Windows
users should delete the "FutureImpactEditor" directory under the path
"c:\Users\
username
\AppData\Local\"
macOS
users should delete the "FIEditor" directory under the path
"/Users/
Username
/Library/Application Support".
The Editor Suite should then function correctly again.

How do I choose which sound plays when the pedal is first powered on?
The FI always starts up at the program most recently-saved using the EDIT dial.
Navigate to the program you want to have as the start-up sound using the
PROGRAM footswitch or your MIDI controller. Turn the EDIT dial one click in one
direction, one click in the other direction then press the dial again to save.
Note: if you subsequently edit another program’s parameters with the EDIT dial and
save the changes, then
that
program will become the new startup program.

How do I change the order of sounds on my pedal?
By far the easiest way to rearrange the sounds to your pedal is to use the new
Manager feature of the

DOWNLOAD FROM FI
feature to show the contents of your pedal in a Tile Window (a graphical
representation of the 99 memory slots of your pedal). You can then drag and drop the
tiles to change their positions and write the sounds to their new locations.
