Picked up Sonarworks SoundID Reference recently (headphones edition). After painstakingly setting up a bunch of custom targets (user presets) for a number of headphones, I was dismayed to realize there's no way to share user presets between the app and plugin, or export presets to use on a 2nd computer. In short, whatever software (standalone app or DAW plugin) and whatever computer you create custom presets on - that's where they'll stay - without manually recreating each preset from scratch. Also - custom presets are stored in proprietary config files (not plain text or XML) that can only be used by the specific software that created them (again, no sharing between app and plugin or between computers).
I emailed the good folks at Sonarworks who confirmed all this. They indicated preset management features are requested often and they're considering adding then in a future version (no ETA).
Is anyone aware of any workarounds? The Sonarworks software is great at what it does, but it has some truly confounding UX issues.
