Alesis Strike Multipad factory reset instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In this guide, we will show you how to back up User Kits and perform a factory reset on an Alesis Strike Multipad. A factory reset will restore the device settings and kits to the original out-of-the-box defaults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Back up user kits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    When restoring the Strike Multipad to its factory default settings, it will erase all User Kits. Just like backing up computer files, having a back up of all of your User Kits available can get you going again without needing to start from scratch. You will need a USB thumb drive which is formatted to FAT32 <\/strong>in order to back up your kits, so follow these steps to complete a system back up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n
    1. Format a USB thumb drive to FAT32<\/strong>, and then connect it to the USB MEMORY <\/strong>port on the back of the unit.<\/li>
    2. Press the Utility <\/strong>button, and then press the F6 <\/strong>button below the display to enter the backup and restore mode.<\/li>
    3. Select Save All User Kits<\/strong> and press the main encoder to begin the back up. You will be prompted when the back up is complete.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Perform a factory reset<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The factory reset option is located in the same menu where you performed the backup and only takes a few moments. Once the reset is complete, load any User Kits you saved to a USB thumb drive back onto your Strike Multipad.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. When prompted, press the encoder again to restart the unit.<\/li>
      3. Press the Utility<\/strong> button, and then press the F6 <\/strong>button below the display to enter the backup and restore mode.<\/li>
