3. Selecting preset bank A and B.
Press the two buttons simultaneously to activate preset bank B.
This switching options also works when you have activated a preset. Here the
preamp switches from bank A to bank B in Manual mode. The decimal point at
the left appears in the display telling you that bank B is active.
<->
Press the two buttons simultaneously to activate preset bank A.
Here the preamp changes from bank B to bank A, MIDI preset 10.
The decimal point at the left disappears.
Note:
When you switch banks in Manual mode or while a factory preset is active, the
sound will not change. And for very good reason—we didn't make a distinction
between banks for Manual mode and the factory presets.
When you change banks while a MIDI preset is active, the preamp's features will
be configured to match the settings of the selected preset.
Note:
When you press two buttons simultaneously, make sure that you bear down on
them at precisely the same time, otherwise the preamp will carry out another
command that you don't want.
Examples:
In the first scenario depicted above, the preamp will switch to MIDI preset 1 if you
press UP before you press the MANUAL button.
Into the second example, the preamp switches to Manual mode if you hit the
MANUAL button before you press DOWN.
Supplementary information:
You can switch back and forth between bank A and bank B in both Manual mode
and for factory presets even though no distinction between banks is made for
these memory slots. The only distinguishing feature between these "nonexistent"
banks is the left decimal point that appears in the display.
Although at first glance this bank switching option would appear to be pointless,
it does have its advantages:
1.You can select the desired bank in Manual mode before you select the MIDI
channel.
2.You can predetermine the bank before you go from Manual mode to the MIDI
presetsby pressing the UP button.
Besides, the bank selection process (press the two MANUAL & UP or DOWN
buttons, depending on the desired bank) is more forgiving in Manual mode.
This means that you can accidentally press the MANUAL button just before you
press the UP or DOWN buttons without inadvertently activating another
function.
