[9] LOAD button
When in Edit mode, press this button to enable Preset loading. Steppy can store up to 8
presets (assigned to each of the 8 buttons in the top row of multifunction buttons), and the
Load function lets you choose which of these to load into active memory for performance.
To load a preset instantly:
1. Press the red EDIT button to enter Edit mode.
2. Press the LOAD button.
The LOAD button glows red and some of the buttons light in the top row to display the
status of the eight presets.
● Lit Preset button: a preset exists on that button.
● Unlit Preset button: there is no preset assigned to that button, and thus nothing to load.
● Rapidly Flashing Preset button: indicates the currently active preset.
3. Short-press (< 1 sec) one of the 8 buttons in the top row to instantly load it.
All buttons will flash quickly to indicate that the preset has been loaded and is now active
(further indicated by the fact that the button corresponding to the loaded preset is now
flashing rapidly).
To delay loading of a preset until the start of the next cycle :
1. Press the red EDIT button to enter Edit mode.
2. Press the LOAD button.
The LOAD button glows red and some of the buttons light in the top row to display the
status of the eight presets, as outlined previously.
3. Long-press ( > 1 sec) one of the 8 buttons in the top row.
All buttons will flash quickly to indicate that the preset request has been received.
However, the new preset will not load until the current pattern completes the cycle on
Track 1.
