After preset 8, the preset will go back to preset 1. 10 STORE function - Use this function to STORE (or save) changes you have made to a preset.

HUSH® is Rocktron's patented single-ended noise reduction system, and is available in all presets. The HUSH system provided in the Cyborg is a fully digital implementation, modeled after the latest analog HUSH design, achieved through Digital Signal Processing (DSP). The low level expander of the HUSH system operates like an electronic volume control.
LED Display The Cyborg’s LED Display consists of 8 LEDs that are used to visually show the user: 1) The PRESET selected 2) The REVERB TYPEs available to any preset. 3) The LEVEL setting (MIN through MAX) of each of the preset’s parameters for the Decay knob (point 4) and the Level Control knob (point 5). As an example, lets choose preset 1. 1) PRESET - First, turn the Preset Knob (point 1) until the LED under the number 1 lights. You now have selected Preset 1.
o The Level Control Knob (point 5). Turning the Level Control knob will light LEDs in the display to show you level of the reverb of the preset relative to the unaffected dry signal. To see the current level for this preset, turn the knob only one click. This will cause the LEDs to light showing your current setting. To change the setting continue turning the knob.
LED Display...continued... Reverb Type The top line in the LED display is the REVERB TYPES that are available for each preset. Preset 1 reverb is called PLATE A. This reverb is a Plate reverb Preset 2 reverb is called PLATE B. This reverb is a Plate reverb. Preset 3 reverb is called ROOM A. This reverb is a room reverb that simulates the reverb sound of a small room. Preset 4 reverb is called ROOM B. This reverb is a Room reverb that simulates a slightly larger room than Room A.
MIDI The Cyborg pedal has a MIDI jack that allows you to access an additional 56 user presets. Using the Rocktron MIDI Breakout cable (sold separately) you can access these additional 56 presets (64 total) by using a Rocktron MIDI Controller such as the Rocktron MIDI XChange, MIDI Mate or All Access. This will also allow you to connect and control additional Rocktron Cyborg pedals. Note that all 64 presets on the Cyborg Reverb may be modified and stored.
