Playing the Demo 
Sequences

Sequence page of the Master menu.

Selecting and Quick 
Editing Presets

 

Selecting and playing the factory provided presets is the first thing you’ll 
do. Audity 2000 comes loaded with 896 presets (you can create and save 
your own, but that comes later). Because the standard MIDI specification  
allows selection of only 128 presets, Audity 2000 presets are organized into 
seven 

 

Banks

 

 containing 128 presets each. The preset is identified in the 

bottom line of the main screen (the screen that appears when you first 
power up the unit). The preset number is three digits long and first in the 
line. The bank containing the preset is identified by a superscript number 
right after the preset number followed by the preset name as shown in the 
following illustration.
