The Setlist View

The setlist view is where you can create new songs and setlists. You can also save and load sessions, and export the session to your P-1 SD card when it is ready.

Send session to P-1

You can put an SD card in the P-1, and connect it to the computer via the P-1’s USB B port. The software will recognise the P-1 and show ‘P-1 connected’ in the bottom right of the screen. The P-1’s display will show ‘USB mass storage mode’ indicating it is now functioning as an SD card reader. Alternatively, you can put the SD card directly into the computer’s card reader, which may lead to faster copying speeds.

When your session is ready, click this button to export the session to your P-1’s SD card. A window will pop up where you can select the SD card’s location (either the P-1 or your card reader), or simply save the exported files somewhere else on your drive if desired. The software will export a file structure that is readable by the pedal, do not disconnect the SD card whilst it is copying files. You can read more about the P-1 files here.

Keep the SD card for P-1 files only

The SD card should only contain the files exported via the ‘Send session to P-1’ button (i.e. the LISTS and UPDATE folders). Do not save .idoru files from the software, or other files, to the SD card or it may cause unpredictable results.

If the P-1 is still displaying old setlists after copying, power off and on the pedal to get the setlists to refresh.

Ejecting the P-1 on macOS

Ejecting the P-1 in macOS sometimes reconnects it a second or two later. Unplug the USB cable straight after ejecting to make the P-1 exit ‘USB MASS STORAGE MODE’.

Import an exported session

Use Import from P-1 to open a session previously exported to an SD card or a folder on your computer. This is useful if you no longer have the original .idoru file or have made changes using the P-1.

1. Make the exported files available by connecting the powered P-1 with its SD card inserted, inserting the card directly into your computer, or locating an exported backup folder on your computer.
2. Click Import from P-1.
3. Select the root of the SD card or the exported lists folder on your computer, then click Import session.
4. Once imported, you can edit the session, save it as an .idoru file or send it to the P-1 again.

Imported session file locations

An imported session continues to use the WAV and MIDI files from the location you selected; those files are not copied somewhere else. If you import from an SD card, its file paths will point to the files on that card. See Creating a self-contained backup if you want the session and its linked files stored together on your computer.

You can only import sessions that have been exported with v.2.0 or later of the Idoru software.

Load

Click the ‘Load’ button to load a .idoru file you have previously saved on your computer.

To reopen a recently used session, choose File > Open recent and select its .idoru file.

Save

Click the ‘Save’ button to save the current session as a .idoru file on your computer. Note: Save the file to your computer and not to the SD card. Storing .idoru files on the SD card is not advised and may cause the P-1 to not be able to correctly read the files on the SD.

Save as

Click the ‘Save as’ button to save the current session as a new .idoru file on your computer.

Close

Click the ‘Close’ button to close the current session.
