When you open the Lab, a blank layout appears, ready for you to begin composing in the Compose tab. To design your layout, simply drag and drop elements from the Compose pane into the central workspace. Each project can include up to 8 layouts, which can be saved together as an .erproj file. Additionally, individual layouts can be exported as .emk files, allowing you to easily manage and organize them across various projects.

Loading projects from your computer

To load an existing project, click the open button. A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to select a file from your computer. Once loaded, the project's 8 layouts will be imported, with the first layout displayed by default.

Loading and saving projects from your Erae

Use the Settings button and LCD menu to load one of your 8 available projects. Similarly, save a project to one of the 8 slots via the Settings button and LCD menu. Be sure to save any modifications made to the current project (e.g., changes to scales on layouts, MPE settings, or added looper patterns) to retain them after a reboot.

Push projects from the Lab to the Erae

To organize projects within the Erae 2, you need to assign them to the correct slots (e.g., project_1, project_2, ... project_8). For example, if you've created a project from scratch in the Lab and want to save it to slot 2, first load project 2 on the Erae through its settings. Then, in the Lab, click the "To the Erae" button to transfer your project.

Load projects from the Erae to the Lab

To load a project onto the Erae, go to Settings → Load, then press the "From the Erae" button in the Lab. The entire project will load, with the first layout displayed by default.
