Formatting the SD Card in OPUS

Got a collection of regular static IRs? OPUS is the definitive solution that gets the best out of them. With storage of up to 512 IRs on the internal memory (plus thousands more on the included memory card) - lest we forget facilities for blending two static IRs and powerful low-latency on-board DSP - OPUS is so much more than just an IR loader - it’s the power to re-image your existing tone shaping tools like never before.

In the following knowledge-base article we discuss how to format your SD card in order to get the best out of your Static IR library!
