How do I load an IR into BigSky MX?

To load an IR into your BigSky MX, follow the below instructions:

Download the free Strymon Nixie 2 application for macOS or Windows computers.

Connect BigSky MX to your computer’s USB port and launch Nixie 2

Click the IR Manager button from the Nixie 2 – Parameter Panel at the bottom of the screen

At the top of the BIGSKY MX panel, click the New Folder button to create at least one custom folder into which can import your IR files.

Within the MAC MEMORY or WINDOWS MEMORY panel at the left of the IR Manager window, browse to the folder where your reverb IR files are stored on your computer.

Select the IR file(s) you wish to import and drag and drop into your custom folder within the right BIGSKY MX panel.

You can also create additional folders and drag individual IRs and folders within the BIGSKY MX panel to move and arrange them however you like.

When you next enter the BigSky MX pedal’s Impulse parameter menu, you’ll have access to your added custom IRs and folders.

NOTE: For import of IR files, BigSky MX will accept mono or stereo .WAV files, 16 or 24 bit, and 48kHz sample rate. Upon import, Nixie 2 will conform IRs to the native format (stereo, 24-bit, 48kHz).
