Electra One app

The Electra One app is the preset editor as a desktop application. It is the same editor you know from the browser, with one difference that matters: your preset library is kept on your own computer, not in the cloud. It needs no account and no internet connection, and it will happily run on a machine that has never been online.

You can still reach the public preset library when you want to — Go online in the main menu signs you in and lets you copy presets across into your local library.

The app runs for 30 days, after which it asks for a licence key.

Click the Apple menu and choose About This Mac. If the Chip line says Apple M1, M2, M3 or M4, take the Apple silicon download. If it says Intel, take the Intel one.

Installing on Windows

Run the downloaded .exe and follow the installer. It installs for the current user only, so it will not ask for an administrator password.

Installing on Linux

The AppImage needs no installation — make it executable and run it:

bash
chmod +x ElectraOne-*.AppImage
./ElectraOne-*.AppImage
