For what it's worth: Since the EQ's features got finalized several versions back, I haven't had even the slightest problem with losing the EQ settings. I've been through many many player upgrades, a disk drive addition, several occasions of the unit going into "power loss" mode (where it zeros the volume), etc., and at no time did I ever lose my EQ presets.

The only reason I could imagine we'd want offline storage of the presets would be if you wanted to transfer the settings from one Empeg to another, or if you were formatting the hard disk from scratch but you wanted to keep the EQs. If that's the case, perhaps it's just stored in a file somewhere and it's a simple case of the guys@empeg telling us which file it is?

Now, the ability to copy an EQ from one preset to another (copying preset number 2 to preset number 12, for example) is a whole different issue, and that's a feature I'd still like to see.
