Presets, Algorithms, Parameters
The H9’s Presets are based on a set of audio processing algorithms. An algorithm is the
underlying structure of the effect that the Preset is built upon. Please refer to our on-line
documentation for descriptions of the H9’s Algorithms & Parameters.
Presets
The following attributes are saved with Presets and recalled when Presets are loaded:
1) Parameter values
2) X, Y, Z button top-level parameter*
3) Tempo/Tap value**
4) Tempo On/Off status
5) Expression Pedal mapping
6) HOTKNOB programming
7) Output level
*Note: The state of the X, Y, and Z buttons is saved with the Preset. For example, if the X
button was set to control “Feedback” then, when the Preset is recalled, the X Knob will be set
to control “Feedback.”
** Note: The H9 can be set up to change the Tempo value when a Preset is loaded or to
ignore the value saved with the Preset. While Tempo values are always saved with the Preset,
you may prefer to have your current Tempo stay the same as you switch from Preset to
Preset. With GLOBAL TEMPO ON, the Tempo saved with the Preset is ignored and the current
Tempo value is used. Global Tempo ON/OFF is described later in this User Guide.
Selecting Presets
Presets are selected by using the Footswitches or by turning the Knob. When a Preset is
loaded the full Preset Name will scroll once across the display.
Select/Cue/Load
To select a Preset using the Footswitches, press the Right Footswitch to increment or
decrement through the presets until the desired Preset is cued. To change the direction,
up/down, press the Knob. Press the Left Footswitch to load the Preset. When a Preset is
‘cued’ the Preset Number flashes to remind you that it is not yet active. The Preset remains
cued until you take some action. Pressing any of the radio buttons or pressing and holding
the Right Footswitch to enable tapping, will disable cueing.
Select/Load Instantly
You can instantly select Presets using the Knob. First press the PRESETS button. Turning the
Knob will scroll through the available Presets and instantly load a Preset when you stop
scrolling. As you turn the Knob the Preset number and the 1
st
4 characters of the Preset Name
are displayed. When you stop scrolling, the Preset loads and the full Preset Name scrolls
across the display.
