Mouse: The original factory presets can be reloaded by holding down the Ctrl-key and clicking 
on any preset button. Alternatively the files described above can be renamed, moved to a dif-
ferent directory, or being deleted. 
Keyboard: Using Ctrl and any number between 1 and 8 (not on the numeric 
keypad) will load the corresponding factory default preset. The key Alt will 
load the user presets instead. 
When loading a preset file, for example 'Main Monitor AN 1_2 plus 
headphone mix 3_4.mad', the file name will be displayed in the title bar of 
the TotalMix window. Also when loading a preset by the preset buttons the 
name of the preset is displayed in the title bar. This way it is always clear 
what the current TotalMix state is based on. 
The eight factory presets offer a pretty good base to modify them to your personal needs. In all 
factory presets Submix View is active by default.

Instead of a single preset, all eight presets can be stored and loaded at once. This is done via 
Menu File, Save All Presets as and Open All Presets (file suffix .mpr). After the loading the 
presets can be activated by the preset buttons. In case the presets have been renamed (see 
chapter 25.11), these names will be stored and loaded too.
