The DSPXtra-FM has an assortment of factory presets and provision for 8 user ones. While the factory presets
may not suit your tastes you will generally find one that serves as a good starting point in creating your own cus-
tom preset. The preset facilities of the DSPXtra-FM are accessed from the three intuitive soft keys.
Selecting a preset.
First press the 'LOAD' button and then select the preset you want with the control knob.
Factory presets are prefixed with Fx where x is a number. User presets are prefixed with
Ux where x is a number between 1 and 8. Once you have selected the preset you want to
load you simply press the 'LOAD' button again. You can audition various presets by simply
scrolling through the preset list and hitting 'LOAD' over each one you wish to listen to.
Comparing a preset
When making processing adjustments it is often desirable to compare against the preset you are adjusting. For
example you may wish to modify a factory preset and save it as a user preset. You select a factory preset and
load it, making it active. You like the factory preset but want to increase the bass slightly and possibly reduce
the drive into the main clipper to reduce distortion. You could modify both processing parameters and then press
the 'LOAD' button. The middle button of the softkeys will change to B. Pressing this button will reload the saved
preset allowing you to compare before and after your changes. The previously marked 'B' button will have now
changed to a 'A’ button which if pressed will return you to the adjusted preset. The other option you have if you
don't press 'UP' is the 'LOAD' button, reloading the saved preset and discarding your changes. By using the but-
ton you can easily make processing adjustments quickly and hear instantly if the change is to your liking. It is
very easy to forget where you are sonically so the comparison feature is very useful. You can also use the facility
to make one processing parameter change at a time, adjusting it, discarding it or saving it to the preset. You can
then repeat the comparison process until you are happy with all of your processing changes.
Saving a preset
To save the current active settings to a user preset you simply press the 'SAVE' button.
You can then select the user preset with the control knob and press the 'GO' button. A new
screen is presented to you allowing the name of the preset to be changed. 'INSERT' and
'DELETE' hot keys are provided to speed things up. Once you are happy with the name
you press the 'DONE soft key to save the preset to the DSPXtra-FM's memory. For speed,
saving the current settings to the same active preset is as simple as pushing the same
button three times as 'SAVE' selects the presets, 'GO' confirms the preset to save and
'DONE' confirms the name entry stage.
