I just did a search of my C drive to find the N4 KC Preset. It pointed me to C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\Steinberg\Nuendo 4|Presets Note there is no mention of the KC Folder. So it SHOULD BE IN THE PRESETS FOLDER. There are several folders and several .XML files but none of them is the KC Preset I saved. When you open the KC folder located in the presets folder, you find the factory .XML preset files, but, again, NOT the one I saved inside of N4.
Meanwhile, the manual says that I need a .KEY file anyway. So how do I get my preset to save as a .Key file?
From the N4 Manual:
Saving complete key commands settings as
presets
As mentioned above, any changes made to the key commands
(and macros) are automatically stored as a Nuendo
preference. However, it is also possible to store key commands
settings separately. This way, you can store any
number of different key command settings, complete or
partial, as presets for instant recall.
Proceed as follows:
- Set up the key commands and macros to your liking.
When setting up key commands, remember to click “Assign” to make the
changes.- Make sure that “Store Selected Items Only” is not activated.
This option is for saving partial key commands settings only (see below).- Click the Save button next to the Presets pop-up
menu.
A dialog appears, allowing you to type in a name for the preset.- Click OK to save the preset.
Your saved key commands settings will now be available in the Preset
pop-up menu for your future projects.
The instructions are the same in the N6 manual. But there’s no mention of how to save them as .Key files ro from where to retrieve them when you want to import them into later iterations.
