Blaze PowerZone: Speaker Preset Library Management
Overview
Use this procedure to create a new speaker preset library, add presets to an existing library, or export a library from a Blaze PowerZone Connect amplifier. Speaker preset files use two formats: .zcp (individual preset) and .zcl (full library). Refer to the [Import Speaker Preset Library](/articles/blaze-powerzone-import-speaker-preset-library) article if you need to load a complete library without modification.
Download Preset Files
- Download the required
.zcppreset file(s) from sonance.com. - Unzip the downloaded file if needed.
- Confirm the file extension:
.zcp= individual preset,.zcl= full library.
Create a New Library
- Open the amplifier web UI — browse to the amp's IP address or use the Blaze PowerZone Control app.
- Go to Settings > Speaker Library.
- Click Create. A new library window opens.
- Name the library.
- Highlight >Speaker Series 1, then click the download icon.
- Click Select File Speaker Presets and browse to your
.zcppreset file(s). - Select one or more presets and click Open to add them.
- Click Update to save the library.
- Apply presets per channel in the Output tab.
Tip: Use folders to organise presets by brand, category, or use case. Click Add Folder, name it, then add presets into each folder. This keeps the library easy to navigate on-site.
Add Presets to an Existing Library
- Open the amplifier web UI.
- Go to Settings > Speaker Library.
- Click Edit. The library editor opens.
- Click the New Folder icon to create a new folder (defaults to "Speaker Series 1"). Rename it by highlighting and clicking the edit icon.
- Highlight the new folder, then click the Download icon. Select the preset file(s) to add and click Import.
- Click Update to save.
- Apply the new preset in the Output tab.
Export a Library
Exporting saves the full preset library as a .zcl file so it can be loaded to other amplifiers on the same or different jobs.
- Open the amplifier web UI.
- Go to Settings > Speaker Library.
- Click Edit, then click Export. The
.zclfile downloads to your Downloads folder. - Save it to a known location. Use the [Import Speaker Preset Library](/articles/blaze-powerzone-import-speaker-preset-library) procedure to load it to other amps.
