Binary Editor Manual
Welcome The Binary Editor software lets you edit/manage your Binary pedal. It has a friendly, easy-to-use graphic user interface that allows all edits to be transferred in real time. Connect your Binary pedal to your computer with a USB cable, open the Binary software, and get cracking! You can download Binary software here: www.hotoneaudio.
Software Notice Usage Notice 1. If you find the Binary Editor doesn’t respond when you first launch the Binary Editor software, it may be because the Binary Editor is initializing (loading presets, user data, IR files, etc.). Please wait for a few seconds and try again. 2. Please launch the Binary Editor first before connecting your Binary pedal to your computer. If your device cannot be recognized, reconnect the power jack and try again.
Start The software will automatically recognize the Binary pedal you connected, but it can only manage one pedal at a time, so if you connect multiple Binary pedals, only the first one you connected will be recognized. If you launch the Binary software with no device connected (or a device not recognized), “No Device Connected” message will come up to inform you to check the connection.
