Importing and Exporting

Share your SuperSource presets with colleagues and the MixEffect community.

You can share presets with other people, or save copies of your presets to your computer.

SuperSource Preset Export File Format

The preset export file is a simple JSON text file that contains information about your preset, including:

• Name

• Description

• Favorite

• Boxes

• Use Box Sources

• Use Custom Speed

• Speed

• Use Custom Animation

• Animation

• SuperSource Macro

Note: The Run Macro and Run Macro Exit flags are not set when importing a preset export file. This is to prevent accidental triggering of macros when importing presets from a third-party.
