the change, but it won’t program automatically. You have to hold the Preset Group switch down in
order for it to program. 

To prove this, activate Preset Group 1. Overdrive, Mo’ EQ and Chorus should all be engaged. Hit a
bunch of individual switches, whatever you want. Then step on the “1” switch again, deactivating the
Preset Group. Now hit the “1” switch once more. Overdrive, Mo’ EQ and Chorus will still be there,
just like you programmed it.

Protecting Your Preset Groups

Even though it takes holding a Group Switch down for nearly a full second to program, we’ve included
a feature that eliminates the possibility of accidental re-programming and locks in your stored set-
tings. After you’ve programmed your four Preset Groups, locate the “Preset Group Mode” switch on
the far right of the rear of the Mo’ Control. Slide the switch to the “Protect” setting (to the left). Now
activate Preset Group 1. Your stored effects should all engage. Now step on the “1” switch again—
the Mo’ Control will deactivate Group 1 immediately and return you to Solo Mode, even if you hold
your foot down on the switch indefinitely. The last thing you need in a live setting is an accidental re-
programming of a Preset Group. When the Preset Group Mode switch is set to “Protect,” this
becomes impossible.

Note:

When you want to change the effects in your Preset Groups, remember to put this switch

back to the “Program” position!

Going From Solo to Group Mode… and From One Group to Another… and Back Again…

You can switch back and for th between Solo Mode and Group Mode ’til your hear t’s content. Just
know that Mo’ Control has a good memor y. If you decide to activate a Preset Group, it will remember
the last thing you did in Solo Mode. So when you deactivate that Preset Group, it will return to what-
ever state Solo Mode was in at that time. Tr y this:

1. In Solo Mode, turn on the SubWave.

2. Turn on Preset Group 1. For the sake of this example, let's say Preset Group 1 is Overdrive,
Mo’ EQ and Chorus.

3. Now hit the Preset Group 1 switch again, turning it off. The Overdrive, Mo’ EQ and Chorus
should turn off, but the SubWave should turn on.

If the last thing you did in Solo Mode was to have all effects disengaged, it will return to that state.
But if something was on, it will be on again when you leave Group Mode.

What if you’re in Preset Group 1 and you hit the “Preset Group 2” switch? The Mo’ Control will simply
go from one group to the other. As long as you keep switching between groups, you’ll remain in
Group Mode. But if you hit any Preset Group switch twice in a row, you’ll return to Solo Mode—and
whatever you did last in that mode will be what you see and hear.

THE FILTER SWEEP PEDAL

The Mo’ Bass Bassynth circuit contains a true, four-pole analog filter, and is touch-sensitive in the
sense that the amount of pressure you apply while striking a note can change the degree to which
the filter opens and closes. (We highly recommend reviewing the entire Bassynth section of your Mo’
Bass Owner's Manual.) For those users who want additional control of the opening and closing of the
filter by means of a foot pedal, we provided the “Filter Sweep Pedal” jack on the rear of the Mo’
Bass, which can be used with after-market “expression pedals” commonly used in conjunction with
keyboards.
