FACTORY VERSUS USER PRESETS

Your Express interface provides eight factory presets and

eight more user presets. Factory presets are “hard-wired”

and cannot be permanently changed. If a factory preset is

the current preset, changes you make to your Express

interface’s settings will not be remembered unless you save

them to one of its eight user presets.

The eight user presets can be conﬁgured any way you wish,

and they can be stored in the interface hardware itself for

later recall.

SELECTING A PRESET ON AN EXPRESS XT

To select a preset from the front panel:

1 If you have a MIDI Express XT, press the BANK button

as needed to choose either the factory preset bank or user

preset bank. The Factory Preset or User Preset LED will

become lit.

2 Repeatedly press the SELECT button until the LED

below the program you want lights up.
