Drag and drop the Preset Template into a folder of your choice on your MPC. I have made my own Crates Motel FX Presets Folder and store them all in there. You can then open the file on your Master Bus, Program, or any other channel for that matter.

For mixing and mastering services feel free to email me at: [email protected]
