RECALLING THE FACTORY PRESET PROGRAMS
If you went through the “Quick Start” section (page 4), you already know how to do this. If 
you didn’t, here’s how you can recall the 32 Factory Preset Programs that are described 
on page 32
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you do a “factory preset recall” you’re gonna permanently 
erase all the programs you’ve written/tweaked yourself. So please make double sure 
that you don’t mind losing your programs before you reset your Valvetronix’s memory 
to its “virgin,” factory default state...’cos once you do a “reset” there’s no turning back!
ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: If there are some programs you’ve written that 
you’d like to remember, jot ‘em down on the “Programmer’s Cheat Sheet” on the 
back of the fold-out rear cover before you “reset” the amp.
YET ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: Resetting the amp will also wipe out any MOD-
ULATION, DELAY and REVERB type changes you’ve made in MANUAL MODE.
Right, now that the “important notes” are taken care of, let’s run through how you 
reset your Valvetronix combo back to the original factory programs...
1. If your amp is on, switch it off.
2. Hold down the ▲, ▼ and TUNER/CANCEL Buttons at the same time and 
then switch the amp on while you’re still pressing the three buttons. If 
you’ve done this correctly, a “ ” will be flashing in the BANK Display. If it 
is skip to step 4, if it isn’t...
3. Switch the amp off and try again...making sure you’re holding all three but-
tons down when you turn the amp on this time! The “ ” is flashing in the 
BANK Display now, right? Good, read on... 
4. Press the WRITE Button and watch the BANK and the four CHANNEL 
LEDs do a little dance as they indicate each one of the 32 programs being 
reset to its factory preset. Once they both stop “dancing,” you’re 
done...your reset mission is a success, the amp will automatically enter 
Program Select Mode with Program 1 - 1, “Flying High,” selected and 
you’re ready to rock!
WARNING: Do not turn off the power to the amplifier during this reset process!
