(4.16) USB
You can use HeadRush Prime’s USB connection to your computer for (4.16.1) Transferring Files & Settings (e.g.,
rigs, setlists, presets, etc.), (4.16.2) Recording (to a digital audio workstation [DAW]), or (4.16.3) Reamping.
(4.16.1) Transferring Files & Settings
Over a USB connection, you can transfer rig, setlist, model
preset, loop, clone, and/or impulse response (IR) files between
your computer and HeadRush Prime.
We recommend creating a backup copy of your files to your
computer before you make any changes.
Important:
Do not disconnect or power off HeadRush Prime during the
process.
Any unsupported files will be ignored.
You cannot transfer a folder or .zip/archive folder to/from
HeadRush Prime. Instead, transfer any supported files directly.
We recommend organizing the file structure of your rigs,
setlists, model presets, and/or impulse response files on your
computer so that it is identical to the file structure as shown on
the HeadRush Prime “drive.”
To transfer files between HeadRush Prime and your computer:
1. Connect your computer to HeadRush Prime’s USB port using a standard USB cable.
2. With your computer powered on, power on HeadRush Prime using the power switch.
3. Tap the Menu icon in the upper-left corner of the Main screen, and then tap USB Transfer.
4. On your computer, HeadRush Prime will appear as a mass-storage device called HeadRush.
Windows users: If this is the first time you’ve connected it to this computer, you may need to wait a minute
while it installs the class-compliant drivers.
5. Open the HeadRush drive. You can now freely click and drag contents between HeadRush and your computer.
Note that any changes you make to the contents of your HeadRush are immediate and cannot be cancelled.
Tip: During this step, you can add an image to use with the screen lock feature. See (4.17) Lock Screen to
learn more.
6. IMPORTANT: When you are finished transferring contents, you must unmount/eject the HeadRush drive from
your computer. File corruption may occur if the drive is not properly ejected before continuing.
7. After the drive has been ejected, tap Sync on your HeadRush Prime to "commit" any changes you made to the
contents of the HeadRush drive.
As HeadRush Prime analyzes and imports the files, a meter on the display will indicate its progress. The normal
Menu screen will reappear when the process is finished. Do not disconnect or power off HeadRush Prime
during the sync process.
