ModFactor User Guide Operating Modes
30
The following attributes are saved with Presets and recalled when Presets are loaded:
1) Parameter knob values.
2) Tempo/Tap value.*
3) Tempo On/Off status.
4) Expression pedal mapping.
* Note: ModFactor can be set up to change the Tempo value when a Preset is loaded or to
ignore the value saved with the Preset. While Tempo values are always saved with the Preset,
you may prefer to have your current Tempo stay the same as you switch from Preset to Preset.
Turn GLOBAL TEMPO ON to do that. With GLOBAL TEMPO ON, the Tempo values saved with
the Preset are ignored and the current Tempo value is used. Global is described later in this
User Guide.
Selecting Preset Banks
In Bank Mode, the Right Footswitch is used to select the current Bank. Tap the Right
Footswitch to increment through the active Banks. When a Bank is displayed, the associated
pair of Presets is cued but the new Preset is not yet loaded. The next time that either the Left
or Middle Footswitch is pressed, the corresponding Preset will load from the cued Bank.
Note: If the previous loaded Preset is in Bypass when the footswitch is pressed, the newly
loaded Preset will be Active.
Note: Edited Presets will be lost if they are not saved before loading another Preset.
Active Banks
If 40 Presets are more than you need, and you’d like to make it quicker and easier to find and
load your Presets, the number of active Banks can be limited. Only the Banks that are active
will show up when loading. While only active Banks can be loaded, Presets can always be
saved to all Banks. Inactive Banks are not erased and can be made active at any time.
You can limit the number of active Banks by selecting a range of consecutive Banks that are
active. For example, if you can set Banks 1 to 5 as active or Banks 8 to 12 or any range of
consecutive Banks. For this reason, it is important to consider the order in which you save
your Presets to best suit your needs. Save groups of Presets in consecutive Banks.
The factory default sets the full range of Banks from 1 to 20 active. To limit the number of
active Banks:
1) Press and hold the Encoder and Right Footswitch simultaneously for a few
seconds to enter System Mode. Release the Encoder.
2) Turn the Encoder until [UTILITY] is displayed.
3) Momentarily press the Encoder.
4) Turn the Encoder until [BANKS] is displayed.
5) Momentarily press the Encoder.
6) Press the Right Footswitch and turn the Encoder to set the upper limit.
7) Press the Left Footswitch and turn the Encoder to set the lower limit.
8) Press and hold the Encoder and Right Footswitch simultaneously for a few
seconds to exit System Mode.
