The G-Sharp has two preset

When switching from Preset
“On” to Preset “Off” mode the
effects will always be updated
according to the positions of
the front controls.
Preset “On” mode:
The display reads a specific
preset number.
In this mode you can recall

stored factory presets apart
from the default settings in the
various effect combinations).
