Selecting a Preset Mode
Five preset modes are provided with the VPC1, which allow you to save the vari-
ous touch curves created by using the included VPC Editor software or the set-
tings of the instrument.
For further information on how to save the settings as presets, please refer to
the PDF manual of the VPC Editor software.
The section below describes how to select the preset modes using the VPC1.
