<<< Presets >>>
Pyramids ships with five example factory presets:
1- Classic
2- Barber Pole Up
3- Trigger Up
4- Step
5- Random
These are intended to get you started and are by no means the be-all-end-all examples of these modes.
Please feel free to modify or overwrite these as you’d like!
To Modify an Existing Preset
• Turn the
Preset Rotary Switch
to the preset you wish to change.
• Adjust the controls to your desired settings. When a control has been changed, the Activate LED will turn
from yellow to red to indicate a change is being made. The red LED is a warning that a preset is being
edited. Any changes made at this point will be lost unless the preset is saved.
• To save your changes, press and release both the
Activate Footswitch
and the
Tap/Trigger Footswitch
at the same time. The Activate LED will then flash yellow. Once the LED is yellow, your modified preset is
saved!
To Write Your Own Preset
• Adjust the controls to your desired settings.
• Press and hold the
Activate Footswitch
.
• While holding the
Activate Footswitch
, press and hold the
Tap/Trigger Footswitch
.
• While holding down both footswitches, turn the Preset Rotary Switch to the desired preset location (1-5)
and release both footswitches.
• The Activate LED will flash and then turn yellow.
• Once the Activate LED turns yellow, your preset is saved!
To Restore Factory Presets
• Turn the
Preset Rotary Switch
to the
Live
position.
• Unplug Pyramids’ power supply from the power jack.
• Press and hold both the
Activate Footswitch

Tap/Trigger Footswitch
.
• Insert the power plug into Pyramids’ power jack.
• Release both footswitches.
• Voila! Your Pyramids sounds as fresh as the day it left the factory.
Step
Step mode tries to restore order to the universe by sweeping up and down in stepped increments, kind of like the
sequencer on a synthesizer. In Step mode, the
Modify
control adjusts the glide between steps. Low Modify settings
produce sharp, stair-stepped transitions between steps. Higher Modify settings introduce a smoother glissando
effect.
Random
Random mode is like Step mode, except the sweep is randomized without reason or rhyme. Some men just want
to watch the world burn.
