PRESETS Your device features 125 overwritable presets divided into 25 banks. In other words, there are five presets available per bank. Each preset consists of a maximum of five ingredients: s s s s s amp simulation (including GAIN, EQ and VOLUME settings) cabinet simulation pre-amp effect, such as noise gate, compressor, auto wah and wah-wah post-amp multi-effect, such as delay, modulation effect, or a combination of both reverb effect 4. 2 Editing presets Editing presets is fast and simple. One option is to call up a preset you like and then start editing it. Select an amp model by means of the AMPS encoder. The LED on the preset button flashes (e. g. D) and signals that you have made a change to the preset. Now change the settings of the VOLUME, BASS, MID, TREBLE and GAIN controls as you like. If you select an effect, you can adjust its ratio in the overall sound using the EFFECTS control. You then switch to EDIT mode by pressing the arrow keys simultaneously. If you use buttons B - E to activate the DRIVE, CABINETS, REVERB and NOISE GATE functions respectively and then edit using the arrow keys, the value of the respective parameter is shown in the display. To quit EDIT mode, briefly press the TUNER button. If you hold the TAP button down while using the TREBLE control, you can raise or lower an additional high-frequency filter (PRESENCE). This simulates the frequency-sensitive coupling of tube amps. The enclosed sheet shows an overview of all the presets. 4. 1 Calling up presets When the unit is switched on, it automatically loads the last used preset. In the following example, the last preset selected was preset D in bank 25: + Apart from compressor and auto wah, all the multieffects have a speed-based parameter. Say you want to set the effect youve selected to the tempo of your playback: just tap the TAP button twice in time to the music and the effect tempo will match the tempo of your piece. 4. 3 Storing presets To store your edited preset, hold down the preset button required for approx. 2 seconds for the preset to be overwritten (the corresponding LED lights up throughout). + Fig. 4. 1: Calling up presets on the V-AMP 2 (similar to V-AMPIRE and V-AMP PRO) In this case, by pressing button A, B, C or E you can immediately call up another preset of the same bank. The two arrow keys (BANK UP and BANK DOWN) enable you to switch banks. The display always shows which bank has been selected. When you switch banks, the preset has to be called up by pressing one of the buttons A - E.
