Opus Quad My Settings on USB Stick: how to save

Hi all, I'm confused by the "My settings" support on the Opus Quad via USB stick. Apparently I can load settings from a USB drive on the Opus Quad. However, how and where can I save the desired settings on the USB for the Opus Quad to load?

In rekordbox on PC I can look at the stored settings on the USB device by clicking on the device where I can also set sort options etc. But I can't change anything there, e.g. the "Deck load lock" function is "off" but I always have it on on my OQ. I don't see any option on the OQ to save the actual settings to the USB. So the settings on the USB don't reflect my actual OQ settings. 

I haven't tried loading the settings from USB as I don't want those settings and also don't want to risk anything if it's not clear how it works.

Thanks for any insights!

set it in the Rekordbox settings and choose to auto push to all USB drives that are plugged in or uncheck that and go in to settings for any new usb plugged in and click to "apply on all connected devices"

Ah, that's how it works, thank you so much! I guess I don't need to load the settings on my own OQ because it keeps them (mostly) but good as a backup or if using on a different device or if someone changed the settings.

yes, the only settings I see the OQ is not saving for me are things like MT, pitch % difference and a few others

Adjust your settings on the device, then use the 'Save My Settings' option in the Utility menu to write them to the USB drive for future use

I once encountered the same situation as you and after a while of tinkering, I figured it out: On Opus Quad, you have to go to UTILITY > My Settings Export to save the current settings to USB. Then, when you plug the USB into another computer, just go to UTILITY > My Settings Import to reload Sprunki Retake . On rekordbox, you can only manage sorting, waveform,... but cannot adjust settings like Deck Load Lock. In general, it's quite convenient if you play at many clubs!

Hey! I’ve run into similar confusion with the Opus Quad settings via USB. From what I’ve gathered, the settings stored on the USB are the ones exported from rekordbox, not the ones saved directly from the OQ itself. Sadly, there’s currently no option on the OQ to write your live settings back to USB.

Your best bet is to configure your preferred settings in rekordbox (including things like Deck Load Lock), then re-export them to USB. I agree it's a bit unclear, and definitely feels like a feature that should be added in a future update!

Let me know if you test the load function — curious to hear how it behaves!
