NOTE:

 THE PRESET TO BE PROGRAMMED MUST FIRST BE SELECTED WHILE STILL IN THE PLAY MODE

BEFORE MOVING ON TO THE PROGRAMMING GROUP SELECTION MENU!

The preset menu group is entered from the Programming Group Selection Menu by pressing the SELECT switch to move the

cursor under "PRSET".

NOTE:

 IF YOU WISH TO COMPLETELY CLEAR OUT THIS PRESET BEFORE PROGRAMMING, YOU MAY DO SO

AT THIS TIME BY PRESSING BOTH THE DOWN AND UP/DOIT SWITCH TOGETHER.  THE CURSOR MUST BE

UNDER THE WORD "PRSET" FOR THE CLEAR FUNCTION TO OPERATE.

Press the MODE switch to move to the first menu in the Preset Programming Group.

PRESET NAME MENU: (PRESET PROGRAMMING GROUP)

Use this menu to give the preset a name of up to 12 characters.

1.  If you wish to blank out the entire name, you may press the DOWN and UP/DOIT switch together.  No other preset

parameter is affected.

2.  Use the DOWN or UP/DOIT switch to change the characters and use the SELECT switch to move to the next character

location.

THE PATCHING AND GAIN MENU: (PRESET PROGRAMMING GROUP)

Use this menu to create the patch network between all devices and to set the gain levels of each patch.  Also use this menu to

set the gain range if a patch is to have continuous control capability and, if you are using the Switchblade with 2 continuous

controllers, to determine which of the controllers the patch will be assigned to.

To use this menu:

1.  If you wish to clear out all of the patches to start from scratch without affecting any other parameters of this preset, press

the DOWN and UP/DOIT switches together.  All patches will be opened, and all gains will be set to OFF.

2.  To create a patch, use the SELECT switch to move the cursor to the upper left area of the display.  This is the "SOURCE"

area.  Use the DOWN or UP/DOIT switch to scroll to the name of the instrument or effect that will be the source of the audio

signal you wish to patch.

3.  Press the SELECT switch to move to the upper right area of the display.  This is the "DESTINATION" area.  Use the

DOWN or UP/DOIT SWITCH to scroll to the name of the amp or effect that the audio signal will be patched to.

4.  Press the SELECT switch to move the cursor to the lower left of the display.  This is the gain area used to turn on and set

the level of the patch.  Use the DOWN or UP/DOIT switch to adjust the level.

5.  If this patch is only to have a fixed gain level (not continuous control) then the cursor may now be moved back up to the

source or destination area to begin selection of the next patch.  If this patch is to have a continuous control range, then move

the cursor over to the lower right area of the display.  A second gain number appears that normally tracks the first gain value.

Press the DOWN or UP/DOIT switch to set the second gain value different from the first (either higher or lower including

OFF).  These two gain values represent the range of gain that this patch will be set to depending on the position of a

continuous controller.

6.  If a gain range has been set (continuous control), a up or down symbol will also appear in the lower display representing

which of 2 continuous controllers this particular patch is assigned to and also shows the current value of the controller in

question by its position in the display. You may test the patch at this time by playing and moving the continuous controller

pedal to achieve the desired sound.

7.  Continue to select source and destination pairs and setting the gain for each pair until the entire patch network has been

wired up.  The whole patch can be cleared out at any time to start over by pressing the DOWN and UP/DOIT switch together.
