Preset Mode

Adding and editing eects is all well and good, but at that point, why not just get a

bunch of separate pedals? One of the main advantages of boxes like the HX Eects

unit is the ability to store many dierent "pedalboards"—each with potentially dier-

ent eects, congurations, and settings—and recall them all with a single footswitch

press. These pedalboards are saved as presets.

The HX Eects device stores up to 32 banks of four presets (A, B, C, and D) for a total

of 128 presets.

If not already there, press MODE to select Preset mode.

Footswitches 1-6 are used for navigating banks and presets:

Bit o’ Drive

01A

Galloping Echoes

01C

Edge of Breakup

01D

Ambient Drones

01B

after pressing a preset switch. See "Global Settings > Switches"
