Dumb Question -- I have my DIRAC set up the way that works best for me. My Mag 1.7i respond fantastically to Dirac. The question is can those settings be transferred from XMC 1 to XMC 2 We have the ability to save setting on the XMC 1, but never tried to restore those setting to a different XMC 1. The question would be can you transfer Dirac 1.0 files into Dirac 2.0 system. Only Dirac can answer that. I would just run the setup again anyway to avoid any input errors.

(which doesn’t answer bootman’s question of whether it’s possible to load 1 settings into 2). Of course it seems that you’d get none of the advantages of Dirac 2, so I’d expect most would want to redo the measurements anyway.

But simply saving the settings on the XMC via the USB port does not save the Dirac settings as far as I know. And a factory reset also doesn't reset Dirac. I'm curious if Dirac Live saved projects will run on Dirac II myself. I understand that the primary changes are in the user interface more than the filter creation.

what about a toaster upgrade? I'm sure someone will let you trade in your XMC-1 for a toaster.

Another question are all of the Xmc-1 accessories required to be present for trade In? Is not then which ones need to be included?

From the emotiva site: (**) While we do not require your XMC-1 to be in as-new condition to be eligible for this trade-in offer, we do reserve the right to disqualify units that have been subject to obvious abuse or serious cosmetic damage – at our sole discretion. If there is any doubt, we may request additional information to confirm the condition of your XMC-1 before trading it in. All trade-in eligibility is at our sole discretion. Any missing accessories, such as remote controls, measurement microphones, original packaging, etc. will be charged to you in addition to the trade in cost.

Since i posted the above i thought of a question pertaining to the upgrade. I have dirac lite that was free with my xmc-1. Im thinking of upgrading to the full version but how will that work with my upcoming trade up ( ). Will the lisence carry over to the xmc-2 if i have the full version or will i have to rebuy the full for the new unit? I didnt see this addressed but if i missed it im sure one of you guys will be on it!

That has not been mentioned, I would hold off for now but I would have to think if one has paid for Dirac Full it would be a free upgrade or a discounted cost ? but in the end we do not yet know.

Chad Good question, I own a Full Dirac license for the XMC-1, will there be a charge for Full Dirac for the RMC-1? Will there be a discount for those that own a Full license already? Will it just be transferable from one to the other? Inquiring minds!

It would be nice if somebucould dig that quote up! 😁🤞

It would be nice if somebucould dig that quote up! 😁🤞 It was the XMC2 and RMC1 at the time. This was prior to the RMC1L’s release if memory serves me correctly. Really hoping for the XMC2 to be released before summer’s end.

For everyone on here and on the v3 HDMI board thread expressing how excited they are for the XMC-2 to be released, “I hope it is out soon!”, “They said by summer, where is it?” etc., I’d like to direct you to the RMC-1 threads for the 6 months leading up to its release.
Read through those, take note of the release issues, and rethink if you really want to go down that road. The people who pressured them to release it “now” are the same people who are now cursing them for releasing a product before it was ready.
I think 90% of Emotiva’s release problems come from rushing to releases a product to satiate people here. I’d rather wait until it’s ready.
If the RMC-1 release history doesn’t convince you, may I direct you to the XMC-1 threads prior to release.
Or the XMC-1 v3 HDMI board threads prior to release.
Or...

That is exactly why I will trade up tp the RMC-1L as it shoaled share same core as the RMC-1 and will hopefully be a bit more refined once released along with the other positives over the XMC-2

I'll be trading mine in on the XMC-2. Need to know when. Also need to know how the Dirac transfer will work, I have the Full version.

I would counter that and say that Emotiva does not have the in house man power to fully vet its Pre/Pros before it releases them. Not a knock on Emotiva as I think Lonnie and his team do a good job, I think its just a matter of not having enough man hours to test all of the multitudes of HDMI input/output combos in the market. If the RMC-1 would have been delayed till Fall 2019 it still would have had the majority of issues that it had during its initial release. For better or worse early Emotiva Pre/Pro adopters will always be semi Beta testers.
