At least you can batch convert though all files in the playlist at once. If your computer is fast (like my overclocked desktop computer) the converting goes very quickly.

just a warning. it might not be necessary for that specific setup, it's been a few years since I tried it, but some VSTs might not keep the last setting when used to convert files. if that happens you need to open the VSTs directly from the conversion interface and set again whatever it is you want to get. some VSTs may even have live parameters and rendering parameter that are different.
 
I mention it because it's faster to check before starting a batch than to cry when it's done and you realize the sound is wrong on 50giga worth of files. I have a friend who did that, not me, no of course not me, plus it was years ago and I didn't know much about foobar or vst at the time... I mean my friend didn't know

Hello everybody!

how can i change the portable config to Forward or Laid-back?

When try this:
File, Preferences, Playback, DSP manager, Click on Down Arrow beside "DSP Chain Presets"; select "Default: Stock foobar2000"; Load

nothing happen! I'm using the pre-configured foobar2000.v1.3.8.Dolby.Headphone.(Neutral)-RPGWiZaRD

Mines slightly different to OP i use APO for EQ instead & use SOX at 44.1k since i use directsound instead. But so far holy crap it makes ER4XR sound really open and 3D like, Almost better or the same as my SRH1540??!.

How to make an impulse response file from these settings ? (wav file for android for example) ?
You don't. Unless it's a 5x2 channel impulse response (which AFAIK no Android program can load)

Edit: ok you can export the front two channels into a 2x2 impulse which V4A and JamesDSP can load. But I was too used to thinking about using surround impulse responses on all material including stereo via an upmixer.

Yeah, how to export it to load it in V4A ?
"Convert" a stereo wav file of silence (with the first sample maxed out on the left, to excite the left channel) into 32-bit wav, then do the same with the first sample maxed out on the right. The first output is your first two channels and the last output is your last two channels in a 4 channel impulse for V4A or JamesDSP.
