How to Import NAM Files and Preset RIG to HeadRush Flex Core Prime: Step-by-Step Guide

This step-by-step guide applies to all next-generation HeadRush pedalboards, including the HeadRush Prime, HeadRush Core, and HeadRush Flex.

Since these devices share the same core ecosystem, the process for transferring and loading your NAM (Neural Amp Modeler) files via USB is identical. 

Make sure you have the latest firmware, which can correctly read NAM A2  files!

Here is the exact step-by-step procedure:
1. Connecting and activating USB Transfer
  1. Connect the HeadRush to your computer using the included USB cable.
  2. Turn on the pedalboard. On the main screen (the one with the icons), tap the Menu icon in the top-left corner.
  3. Select the USB Transfer option.
  4. A notification will appear on the pedalboard screen, and your computer will detect the HeadRush as a standard USB flash drive or external hard drive.
2. Transferring the NAM files
  1. Open the HeadRush folder that appears on your computer.
  2. Look for the folder named Amp Clones - Nam (or Clones) and open the User subfolder.
  3. Take your files with the .nam extension from your computer and drag and drop them inside this folder.

2.1. Transferring the RIG files

  1. Look for the folder named Rigs and open it.
  2. Take your files with the .rig extension from your computer and drag and drop them inside this folder.
3. Syncing and Disconnecting
  1. Once the copying process is complete, safely eject (remove) the HeadRush volume from your computer's operating system.
  2. On the HeadRush screen, tap the SYNC button to process the newly added files.
  3. Disconnect the USB cable.
4. How to load the NAM file into your Rig
  1. Open a rig on your HeadRush.
  2. Tap on NAM empty block in the signal chain and select the Clone - NAM category.
  3. Choose Neural Amp Modeler (or Amp Clone) and tap Load.
  4. Open the User folder to find and select the .nam profile you just imported.
  5. Save. 
  6. Repeat for each rig, assigning each its own NAM file correctly as per the info point, and saving each one.
  7. Have fun
