ZD2 type effect replacing, step by step for beginners?

[Obermuki]

Dear all, dear mungewell, can we (beginners) ask user friendly guide for this effect change method? Step by step, if it's possible. Because there are videos and many instructions on the web about the Barsik-Barbosik ZDL effect changes, but not to much info about the ZD2 replacing. Thanks in advance.

Hey. Here is short manual. Worked on my G1four with effects from B1four

1. Download zoom-zt2-v0.2.0.zip, unpack anywhere

2. Start zoom-zt2-v0.2.0\build\exe.win-amd64-3.6\zoomzt2-gui.exe when the device is connected

3. On the Effects tab, you can delete unnecessary ones to free up memory (this can also be done through ToneLib), New-> Select Effect - to load new effects

4. The effects themselves can be downloaded as follows:

• Get file name from effect_summary.xls in effect_summary.zip
• add https://www.zoom.co.jp/archive/ZDLM/ZDLF3/ to the beginning and change .ZD2 to .zip (lowercase!) and paste this to browser For example: DIPLUS1U.ZD2 -> http://www.zoom.co.jp/archive/ZDLM/ZDLF3/DIPLUS1U.zip

P.S .: For G1four bass effects should be taken from B1four page (usually they have 1U in the file name). P.P.S .: after removing the effect, sometimes corresponding file remains. Then you need to download it through Files-> Download, upload downloaded file again through New-> Select Effect and then remove comletely through Effects-> Remove

Do at your own and risk! ))

there also seems to be resources at http://www.zoom.co.jp/archive/GUITAR_LAB/ZDLF6/<>.zip

I guess this is where Guitar Lab goes to check content? It seems to iterate and compare what's on your pedal with the mother ship then offer you the chance to add, if you have the space.
