User Guide The Footswitches

Preset Mode
In Preset Mode, the Billboard displays the Preset Number followed by the first 10 characters
of the Preset Name of the currently loaded Preset. The Left Footswitch is used for loading and
Bypassing Presets.
Note: Each of the 100 Presets can be based on any of the Algorithms. You can choose to
have all 100 presets based on Blackhole. Or, two based on Spring, three based on Room, five
based on Hall, etc. - or any combination.
Loading/Bypassing Presets
To Bypass the Preset, simply press the Left Footswitch. Press again and the Preset becomes
active. Whenever a Preset is loaded, the Preset’s underlying Algorithm is displayed
momentarily.
The following attributes are saved with Presets and recalled when Presets are loaded:
1)
Parameter knob values.
2)
Tempo/Tap value.*
3)
Tempo On/Off status.
4)
Expression pedal mapping.
5)
HotSwitch programming.
6)
Output level
* Note:
can be set up to change the Tempo value when a Preset is loaded or to ignore
the value saved with the Preset. While Tempo values are always saved with the Preset, you
may prefer to have your current Tempo stay the same as you switch from Preset to Preset.
Turn GLOBAL TEMPO ON to do that. With GLOBAL TEMPO ON, the Tempo values saved with
the Preset are ignored and the current Tempo value is used. Setting Global Tempo is
described later in this User Guide.
Selecting Presets
In Preset Mode, the Middle and Right Footswitch are used to step through the Presets. Tap
the Middle Footswitch to decrement and the Right Footswitch to increment. Press the Left
Footswitch to load.
You can also turn the Encoder to select Presets. When using the Encoder presets are loaded
instantly.
Note: Edited Presets will be lost if they are not saved before loading another Preset.
Active Presets
If 100 Presets are more than you need, and you’d like to make it quicker and easier to find
and load your Presets, the number of active Presets can be reduced. Only the Presets that are
active will show up when loading. While only active Presets can be loaded, Presets can always
be saved to disabled Preset Numbers. Inactive Presets are not erased (but can be overwritten)
and can be made active at any time.
Active Presets are limited to a range. The default is for all 100 Presets active. You can limit the
number of active Presets, by setting the active range in System Mode. For example, if you set
the lower limit to 5 and the upper limit to 10, Presets from 5-10 will be active. By logically
grouping your Presets, you can get through a song or set without having to click through all
100 Presets. Remember, when saving Presets, group them to best suit your needs.
