Defining and using Global Effects
Each effect in VL3X can load and use Global set-
tings. Global settings make editing effects much
easier and faster, but you need to understand
the concept to use it effectively.
How do Global Effects work?
First, you define a “Global Preset” in the Sys-
tem menu. This Preset is the Preset from which
any other Preset can “pull” settings for any ef-
fect. Think of this Global Preset as a template
or master.
In the screen shot below, you will see that Preset
491 has been defined as the Global Preset. You
can change this to any other Preset if you like.
However, we recommend making yourself fa-
miliar with editing the Global Preset and turning
Global ON in other Presets before you reassign
the Global Preset.
Global Preset set to Preset no. 491
If you invest some time into creating effects that
you like in your Global Preset, you can then ac-
cess these effects in any other Preset by simply
setting one parameter.
We have defined a Global Preset for you already
(the factory default is 491), but you can make
your own.
Tip: Keep your Global Preset safe
We suggest placing the global Preset in a loca-
tion quite far from your other Presets in the box,
so you don’t accidentally overwrite it. Any Pre-
sets that depend on the information in the Global
Preset will be affected if you delete or change it.
