Is there any way to quickly restore default effect list on G1four? #65

Closed pan-danio closed 5 months ago

pan-danio commented 9 months ago

Hey, im planning to sell my zoom g1four and i want to restore default fx list on my unit. Is there any quick method to do that? I want to delete all my added effecsts and install all missing from factory. I tried installing firmware once again, and initializing my unit. I have now default patches list, but some patches has excalmation mark in the chain, so no every effect is loaded. The bad thing is guitar lab shows 99% memory usage of the unit. Tried to use "G1_purge.sh" script in the scripts folder, modified it to ".bat" (im using windows) but every line i get and error: eg. python zoomzt2.py -U UK30A_1U.ZD2 -S empty.zt2 gives me zoomzt2: error: unrecognized arguments: empty.zt2 The empty.zt2 is present in local folder.

Maybe there is an easy solution for that?

That script is 3yrs old, and perhaps is out of date with main program.

The fact that GL is reporting 99% space use suggests that the actual ZD2 files have not been removed. You can start the GUI app with the -D flag to enable a delete button on the files tab... which you can then use to manually delete files.

    parser.add_argument("-D", "--delete",
        help="enable button to delete files from device (use with care)",
        action="store_true", dest="delete")

Or alternately you can use xargs to pass multiple effect file names to the command line script. I'm away from my pedal, but that would look something like

$ ls *.ZD2 | xargs python3 zoom-zt2.py --uninstall

or

$ cut -f 6 scripts/G1_everything.sh | xargs python3 zoom-zt2.py --uninstall

Ok, thx for your answer. I have few more questions though:

1) Does G1_everything.sh script uploads all the default effects on g1? 2) I ran GUI with -D flag and i have "delete" button available. What is the difference from "Delete" btn on "Files" tab and "Remove" btn on "effects" tab?

"Remove" is to uninstall an effect, which deletes the effect's ZD2 file from the pedal internal storage and removes a reference to the effect from the internal effect list file (FLST_SEQ.ZT2). "Delete" is just that, delete a file.

When the corresponding effect list file (FLST_SEQ.ZT2) is missing, it will be regenerated automatically on boot up; all .ZD2 files found will be referenced.

NOTE: do NOT delete all files from the pedal, only .ZD2; other files (.raw, .BDL) must be present for proper functioning of the pedal.

mungewell commented 5 months ago

In order to 'reset' the pedal you can use zoomzt2-gui.py to remove all the effects, and then upload the default FLST_SEQ.ZT2 file. Guitar-Lab will then 'auto-magically' install all required effect files when the pedal is connected.

The 'FLST_SEQ.ZT2` file can be found in the unzipped FW from the appropriate pedal, or I have uploaded some 'build' scripts to effect directory... for example: https://github.com/mungewell/zoom-zt2/blob/master/zoom_fx_AllZDL7/G1%20FOUR/unzipped/FLST_SEQ.sh

To use the script method

$ cp EMPTY.ZT2 FLST_SEQ.ZT2
$ sh FLST_SEQ.sh
$ python3 zoomzt2.py -S FLST_SEQ.ZT2

Thx for your help Guys. I've done this by hand. I carefully checked this default effect list and list from my effect. Then i deleted all the unwanted effects and installed the missing ones. Case closed.
