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
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 to cycle among
the programs until the LED for the program you want
lights up.
