gain thing in Crunch or Soft Lead modes, dial in a lower Threshold knob setting (below
12 o'clock) to prevent the gate from throttling notes (that is, the musically useful
sounds) as they decay particularly if you like to work the guitar's volume knob.
For reasons of convenience and handling ease, we made programming sounds to MIDI
presets a piece of cake. Because this preamp offers so many programmable switching
functions, is indeed a handy tool. It lets you copy the settings of one MIDI preset
to another. You'll come to appreciate its utility when you begin programming your
own presets. Dumping a stored setup from one MIDI preset to another, and editing
and storing changes in the target preset, is so must faster and more convenient than
programming from scratch every time. MIDI preset 1 is called up automatically when
you switch the preamp on. This ensures that when you power up, the settings for
programmable sound-shaping functions are immediately enabled in the configuration
stored in the most recent programming session - without having to first connect a MIDI
foot board.
1. Select the desired MIDI program (also called a preset or patch) using a MIDI foot
board connected to the amp's (55).
2. Set all programmable features as required, configuring , , ,
, , and so forth as you please. All programmable functions
are designated as such in their descriptions herein.
3. The Status LED flashes to indicate you have edited one or several settings.
4. Press and hold the Write/Copy button (34) for about one second until the Status
LED extinguishes, and then flashes three times in rapid succession. The current settings
of all programmable functions are now stored in the selected MIDI patch.
1. Select the desired MIDI preset using a MIDI foot board connected to the E570
preamp's MIDI In port. This is the preset that you want to copy, which is why in geek-
speak it is called the "source."
2. Press the Copy/Write button briefly. It is essential that during this routine you do not
change the settings of programmable functions in the selected source preset. That
Status LED lights up continuously to indicate that Copy is activated.
3. Select the target preset via the MIDI foot board; you have approx. 30 seconds to do
this. (The preamp automatically quits Copy mode 30 seconds after it is activated.)
4. Press and hold the Write/Copy button (34) until the Status LED extinguishes, and
then flashes three times in rapid succession. The current settings of all programmable
functions stored in the source MIDI patch (that's the preset you selected first when you
activated ) have now been dumped to the newly selected target preset.
