Topic: Loading certain settings on user logon

Hi,
for workstations equipped with MADI FX cards I need to know how to automatically start these cards with a set of certain settings, without user interaction. However, the users should still be able to alter settings later (until next logon) - that's why the "lock user interface" option isn't exactly what I'm looking for.

In case there is a location in the registry for the card defaults I would like to know about this - but I haven't found it yet.
Thanks for your input!

Re: Loading certain settings on user logon

From the manual:
25.7.1 Store for Current or All Users (Windows)

TotalMix FX stores all settings, workspaces and snapshots for the current user in:
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\ Username\Local Settings\ Application Data\TotalMixFX
Since Vista: C.\Users\Username\AppData\Local\TotalMixFX

Current User ensures that when workstations are used by several people they all find their own
settings. In case the settings should be identical or given for any user, TotalMix FX can be
changed to use the All User directory. An admin could even write protect the file lastHDSPe-
MADIFX1.xml, which results in a complete reset to that file’s content whenever TotalMix FX is
restarted. The xml-file is updated on exit, so simply set up TotalMix as desired and exit it (right
mouse click on the symbol in the notification area).

Re: Loading certain settings on user logon

Thanks a lot! I only found "Program Data /TotalMixFX" with the same files inside, but now it makes sense...
