If you need to change between presets quickly without scanning, this procedure

will be to your advantage. As in the other examples, editing the MPT is the key.

In this example we will edit the MPT to sequence through ten PRESETS. These

PRESETS are in the order: 26,J4,F2,69,E2,U2,69,Y9,82,26. Notice that we repeated

some presets and included the BYPASS preset (Y1). Remember, you can assign any

preset to a MIDI number including using a preset at multiple locations. Using the

BYPASS preset enables you to select no effect without having to bypass the unit

from the front panel and then continuing on with an effect preset next in the

chain.

*-Enter the MPT edit mode.

*-With the left decimal point blinking, use the up/down buttons to get a display

of [1.0].

*-Press the BYPASS button, the decimal point now blinks on the right side.

*-Use the up button to select PRESET 26. The display will be [26.].

*-Press the MIDI button and set the display for [1.1].

*-Press the BYPASS button and set the display for [J4.].

*-Continue this way until all the PRESETs are entered the last being 26.

*-DO NOT LEAVE THE MPT EDIT MODE

*-Press the MIDI button and go to [1.0]. As you increment up, you will recall the

sequence of presets just entered.

This way of arranging presets is helpful when you have presets you need to get to

quickly. Instead of scanning up and down through multitudes of presets, you need

only scan through the ones you use the most. Make a table of the MIDI number and

assigned Preset for quick reference since you can only view the MIDI program

number.

NOTE: Start your sequence at MIDI program number ten or twenty. This will leave

you room for programming presets for the Increment Preset feature.

EXAMPLE 4

Changing the MIDI channel

To select a specific MIDI channel, press the MIDI button and use the up/down

buttons to select the desired channel. The right decimal point will be on

whenever the display is showing MIDI. The channel number is held in memory when

the unit is turned off.

INCREMENT PRESET

Increment Preset Mode (IP) allows you to program the REMOTE jack on the rear

panel so that you may use a footswitch to increment through a desired set of

presets.

Example four describes how to set IP to sequence through five presets. A maximum

of one hundred twenty-eight presets may be sequenced. You must always start at

MIDI Program number one when using IP for sequencing.

Example five shows how to program the REMOTE jack for normal bypass operation.

IP is accessed through the MIDI Program Table. To enter the MPT edit mode, press

and hold the MIDI, then BYPASS buttons, release both. The display will show some

number with the left decimal point blinking. Increment up (use the RAPID ACCESS

mode!) until the display reads [l.P]. This indicates Increment Preset. You are

now ready to program. Press the BYPASS button, the decimal point is now blinking
