Makes it into a FAT BASTARD.

Also must compete with Marshall Anniversary stacks and older SVT cabs w/ ancient PBass's.
Native synths can't even get in the mix really. They are too thin.

But Solaris.........that Dog will hunt.

That "vox bass"
Just when you think the sound is gone... it comes back and grabs ya

Jimmy's presets are so big, they need multiple highlighting.....

Well, if you got to know Jimmy, you would understand why

I do have more. If you want I can pm them to you as the second batch isn;t finished but I have around 6 more that are also FAT BASTARDS.

They're my favourite presets so far. They are also, for some reason, considerably louder than other banks of presets

Hmmm, interesting! We should change that....

no, just the Preset LED lit, and you should have it.
Please send me a picture of your Preset Mode display, so I can see what you see.

If you look in your User Guide on page 10, you will see what the Preset Mode main page looks like. It's all explained under the Preset Mode: Graphic Display heading.

And if you don't have the User's Guide, remember you can always download it from here:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=889

When I press the preset button I only get one page, no numbers and the up and down buttons do nothing. Is there a different way to access preset without pressing the preset button?

Preset Mode has 3 "pages". For any screen in the graphics display, there can be more than the current screen you see. Generally, if there are multiple pages, you will see a number ratio in the lower right of the display. For example, if you see 1/4, you are viewing page 1 of 4 possible pages. You used the 2 vertical buttons to the left of the graphics display to 'move' through the pages.

For Preset Mode, page 2 shows the assignable controls for quick editing of selected parameters (as programmed by the user), and page 3, showing 10 Presets at a time. This is the page you are seeing in this topic.

For me, I often access page 3 by stepping 'up' or 'backwards' through the pages, since they always wrap around.

How do I get this page up My preset page only has one page and I feel left out!

Yes, this is not a high priority right now, sorry.

Keeps happening every once in a while, And this is how it looks like:

Happened to me as well, but still the preset playing was the preset i wanted. It's just that several names were highlited.
I just went out of preset mode and back again, moved to the page where you see 10 presets at a time and it was back to normal.
