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 100 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.
When limiting the number of Banks, you have the ability to deactivate both the lower Bank
numbers and the higher Bank numbers. For example, if you only want 5 active Banks, but you
want them to range from Banks 6-10, you can adjust the low number and the high number
separately.
The factory default sets the number of active Banks to 50. 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) Turn the Encoder to adjust the high number of banks from H1 to H50.
7) Momentarily press the Left Footswitch to adjust the low number of banks
from L1 to the high value indicated by the H.
8) Press and hold the Encoder and Right Footswitch simultaneously for a few
seconds to exit System Mode.
Tempo
Tempo ON/OFF
Tempo is turned ON or OFF by momentarily pressing the Encoder. When Tempo is ON, the
Tempo LED flashes at the Tempo rate. With Tempo OFF, the Tempo LED is OFF.
When Tempo is ON, DLY Time A and DLY Time B are set in rhythmic sub-divisions of the beat
i.e. note values from 0 delay to a whole note in common note increments rather than in ms.
When Tempo is OFF, you can set the delay time by tapping the Tap Footswitch in Play Mode.
In this case, Delay Time A and B are set to the same value.
Tap Tempo
In Play Mode, the Tap Footswitch can be tapped to set the tempo. While tapping, the
Billboard displays the updated Tempo.
Note: When using an Aux Switch to tap tempo, the Billboard will display the tempo value in
both Play and Bank Modes.
