Presets are selected using one of four methods:

1. Using the VALUE encoder

2. Pressing one of the four PRESET access footswitches

3. Pressing the BANK select footswitch followed by one of the Footpedals

4. Via MIDI Program Change commands

VALUE Encoder

Rotating the VALUE encoder clockwise advances the Preset by one, while rotating the encoder counter-
clockwise decrements the Preset by one. In either case, the new Preset appears in the display and is imme-
diately available to be played (you do not need to ‘activate’ a Preset to hear it). Note that when the Menu
Wrap parameter is ON (default = ON), preset selections will wrap around when the last Preset location
is reached (M2, M3, M4, A1, A2...) and also when the first Preset location is reached when moving in the
reverse direction (A3, A2, A1, M4, M3...).

PRESET Footswitches

Pressing one of the four PRESET footswitches selects one of the four Presets within the current bank. For
example, if you are in Bank A, then the four PRESET footswitches select Presets A1-A4. If you are in Bank G,
however, then the four PRESET footswitches select presets G1-G4.

BANK Select Footswitch

The BANK footswitch allows you to switch to any one the 13 available banks. When you press the BANK
footswitch, the function of the Pedalboard temporarily changes to a ‘bank selection’ function, where each
footpedal selects one of the 13 banks as follows:

NOTE: Panel controls and footswitches will have no effect if the ‘Local Control’ parameter is set to
‘OFF’. MIDI Commands, however, will always take effect regardless of the Local Control status

NOTE: If you press the BANK footswitch by mistake, pressing it a second time will cancel
the Bank Selection function.

Pressing the BANK footswitch causes the Bank LED to blink. To select a new bank, press one of the foot-
pedals, then press one of the four PRESET footswitches to complete the selection. The Bank LED will go off
and the new Preset will be loaded.
