Operating instructions

Bank "C" PRODUCTION

Individual effects in a patch, small rooms with different mic placements, clean/dirty

miced amps, drum and vocal reverb patches are all represented here. From preset 1 to

preset 29, each individual effect has its own patch. This allows you to just use chorus or

compression or any other effect alone. Also, the effects parameters are set at their

"default" value. The value each parameter of the effect comes up with when you are

building your own patches. From preset 30 to 68 listen to all the different types of rooms

you can have for your bass sounds. Dirt, clean, close miced, not-so-close miced, effected,

bright, warm and muddled; the possibilities seem endless. The next set of presets were set

up to be used specifically with your SGX NIGHTBASS SE patched into a mixing board

or console. Vocals and drums may be processed with patches 69 through 111. For the

vocal and drum patches, the mix has been set for all "wet". This allows you to mix in

the amount of "dry" signal to your needs from whatever board (preferably an A.R.T.

PHANTOM) you are working from. Remember not to limit your use of these patches to

what we say they were built for!

Bank "D" CONTRIBUTION

Artists, producers, and engineers worldwide compiled these presets. Presets range from

rock lead, interpretations of basses and players, straight, dirty, and of course presets

which are totally bizarre. As an extra added benefit, we installed over forty of the hottest

sounds from the SGX 2000 EXPRESS! Just let your guitar player friends check out some

of the smokin' sounds, just make sure it still in your rack when they're done!

Bank "U" USER

Your own presets are stored in memory slots designated as "U" presets. When you create

presets whether by starting from scratch, or modifying an existing factory preset, that

preset is stored in "User" memory. Though there is no actual bank "U" assessable through

the Utility function, the preset is labeled "U" in the title bar when you store a preset.

PRESET BANKS, HOW TO USE THEM

WHERE AM I?

To find out which bank of presets you are in, look at the title in the LCD window. The

last space on the top line of the LCD (the title bar) is reserved to show you the bank

designator. A capital letter "A", "B", "C", "D", or "U" will be visible in reversed text.
