Mastermind GT/22 default button configuration
Presets and Banks
The green buttons are preset selection buttons. These are typically used to send program change messages to effects
processors and to turn on or off multiple loops on audio switchers. Each preset can simultaneously affect every device
in your system, so presets are typically used for different songs, different song sections or any time you need to define a
specific sound.
The Mastermind GT can store up to 768 presets. They are arranged in banks, and each bank is defined by how many
preset buttons are available. The default configuration is to have 6 preset buttons, so a bank will contain 6 presets. On
the Mastermind GT/16 and GT/10, there are 5 preset buttons by default and a bank has 5 presets. The Bank Up and Bank
Down will shift up or down one bank, respectively.
When you press the Bank Up or Down button, the text over the preset buttons will change to show the presets in the
selected bank. The preset buttons will flash, indicating that you need to select a preset. You can either continue to use
the Bank Up and Down buttons to find the bank you need, or you can press one of the preset buttons to select that
preset. The Mastermind GT will not switch to a new preset – and will not send any MIDI messages – until you leave the
bank selection mode by selecting a preset.
Instant Access Buttons
The blue buttons on the controller are the instant access buttons. Unlike the preset buttons, which affect everything in
your system simultaneously, an instant access button typically controls one particular feature or effect in your system.
You might assign an instant access button to switch on a fuzz pedal connected to a loop switcher, or to turn on a
chorus effect block in an effect processor. You can think of your instant access buttons as a virtual pedalboard – one
button press turns on or off one effect.
