7.1 Storing and
loading parameter settings
For each effect, it will be possible to store eight
different parameter settings (presets) which are
easily loaded for repeated applications.
7.1.1 Storing settings
1) Select the parameters as desired for the
effect selected.
2) Press the button FX LOAD/
PAR
/
TAP (8)
repeatedly until “Save_P:” appears in the
second line of the display.
3) To activate the storage mode, press the but-
ton BYPASS / ENTER (10) within 10 seconds.
If it takes longer (the second line of the display
will indicate “Preset:” again), repeat step 2.
4) Select one of the eight memory locations with
the control PAR VALUE (7). On memory
location 1, the factory settings for the effect
selected are stored. You may overwrite them
with your own settings. Free memory loca-
tions are marked “Empty”.
5) Press the button BYPASS / ENTER to confirm
the selection of the memory location. If the
memory location selected has already been
used, the unit will ask if you wish to overwrite
it: “Overwrite preset?”. Press the button
BYPASS / ENTER to confirm or the button FX
LOAD/ PAR / TAP to abort.
If the process has not been aborted, the sec-
ond line of the display will show “Edit Name:”
and “Empty” (if the memory location is free)
or the name used before.
6) The name of the setting to be stored may
contain up to eight characters. Select the
input position with the control FX SELECT (9)
and select a character with the control PAR
VALUE. Repeat the process for the other
positions. The following characters are avail-
able:
space character ! ” # $ % & ʻ ( )
*
+ , – .

7) After entering the name, store the settings
with the button BYPASS / ENTER.
7.1.2 Loading settings
1) Select the desired effect with the knob FX
SELECT (9) and activate it with the button FX
LOAD/ PAR / TAP (8).
2) Press the button FX LOAD/ PAR / TAP repeat-
edly until “Load_P:” appears in the second
line of the display (after the last adjustable
parameter).
3) To activate the loading process, press the
button BYPASS / ENTER (10) within 10 sec-
onds. If it takes longer (the second line of the
display will indicate “Preset:” again), repeat
step 2.
4) Select a setting with the control PAR VALUE
(7). The last setting loaded will be indicated
without an asterisk
*
in front of the memory
location number.
5) To activate the setting selected, press the
button BYPASS/ ENTER. The memory loca-
tion number of this setting will also appear
behind the effect name.
7.2 Resetting all parameters to the
factory settings
If the parameters have been misadjusted so that
the sound is not really good any more, it will be
easy to reset the unit: The parameter memories
1 of all effects will be reset to the default values
and the memories 2 – 8 with your own settings
will be deleted.
1) Switch off the MFX-204.
2) Keep the button BYPASS
/
ENTER (10)
pressed and switch on the unit at the same
time. The display will show:
Set factory config.?
if yes press
<
Tap
>
3) Press the button FX LOAD/ PAR / TAP (8) to
confirm. The display will show:
Reset, are you sure?
if yes press
<
Fx/Byp
>
4) To reset, press the buttons FX LOAD/ PAR /
TAP and BYPASS / ENTER at the same time.
Just like after switching on, the display will
indicate the unit name and the firmware ver-
sion successively. Then the MFX-204 is
ready for operation again.
