The StudioLive comes with a suite of channel-strip presets created by professional PreSonus users 
and endorsed artists and engineers. These presets provide a great jumping-off point to create a mix 
quickly and easily. The StudioLive also allows you to create your own library of presets. 
To  load  a  preset  to  any  channel  on  the 
StudioLive, rst press the Select button for the 
desired  channel.  From  the  Fat  Channel,  press 
the  Load button.  You  will notice  that  LCD  now 
displays the Channel Preset Load menu.
The Channel Preset Load menu always displays 
the  selected  channel  into which the  preset  will 
be loaded. Use the Value encoder to locate the 
preset  you  would  like  to  use.  Once  you  have 
made  your  selection,  press  the  Recall  button. 
If  at  any  time  you  would  like  to  cancel  this 
operation, simply press the Load button again.
If you have created a channel-strip setting in the 
Fat  Channel  that you  would like  to  save  to  the 
Channel Preset library, press the Fat Channel’s 
Save  button.  You  will  notice  that  the  LCD  will 
display the Channel Preset Save menu.
To  begin,  use  the  Value  encoder  to  scroll 
to  an  empty  position  in  the  Channel  Preset 
library.  Press the  Next  button  to  navigate to 
the category location. Create the category in 
which  your  preset  would  t  (DRM,  VOX,  GTR, 
etc.).  Press  the  Next  button  again  to  navigate 
to  the  rst  letter  of  the  preset  name.  Turn  the 
Value  Encoder  clockwise  or  counter-clockwise  to  change  the  letter.  The  StudioLive  allows  you 
to customize the name with uppercase and lowercase letters, as well as a selection of numerals 
and punctuation marks. You can insert a space by simply pressing the Tap button. Once you are 
satised  with your changes,  press the  Store  button. It will illuminate while  the Channel  preset is 
being  written  to  the  StudioLive’s  internal  memory.  Once  the  Channel  preset  is  saved,  the  Store 
button will return to its unlit state.
