Slim Phatty User’s Manual - The User Interface
Preset mode is the default mode when the SP is powered on. Preset Mode is used to access presets and
provide control for editing, naming and storing sounds.
Preset sounds are selected using the VALUE knob. As the VALUE
knob is advanced, the next preset appears in the display and is im-
mediately available to be auditioned (you do not need to ‘activate’
the preset to hear it). Pressing VALUE and turning the knob will
advance by increments of ten.
You can use the front panel controls to edit the sound at any point.
Changing any of the front panel controls will automatically switch
the lower part of the display from ‘PRESET ACTIVE’ to ‘PANEL
ACTIVE’, indicating that the preset has been modified. The PRESET
light also changes its illumination from red to amber, indicating that
the sound you hear is an edited version of the stored preset
You can toggle between the stored and edited sound by pressing
the PRESET button. This acts like a COMPARE function, allowing
you to compare the sound of the original and edited presets. When
using the COMPARE function, the PRESET button will alternate
colors and the LCD will display either ‘PRESET ACTIVE’ (the original
sound) or ‘PANEL ACTIVE’ (the edited sound).
NOTE: When switching between Master and Preset modes,
the last used preset appears in the display.
Preset Mode
Storing Presets
To store a preset, press the ENTER button. This button doubles as the STORE button in Preset mode as
indicated on the front panel. Store is used to save an edited preset (Panel Active), or to change the location
of a stored preset (Preset Active).
When you press STORE, the LCD will display a message similar to the
one shown at left. The top line shows the location where the preset
will be saved, and the name of the preset that is currently stored in that
location. Use the VALUE knob to change to the desired preset location,
then press the CURSOR to move the cursor to the lower line of the
LCD. A default setting of ‘OVERWRITE: NO’ as shown protects you
from accidently overwriting a favorite preset. If you decide that you
do not want to save the preset, press ENTER and the SP will return to
Panel Mode without saving.
If you are sure you want to save the preset to the selected location,
use the VALUE knob to select ‘OVERWRITE: YES’ and press ENTER.
The SP will display the ‘PRESET STORED’ message confirming that
your preset was saved successfully.
