Managing Presets

The DriveRack PA2 has two types of presets: user and factory. The user presets occupy preset memory locations1-75. The
factory presets occupy preset memory locations 76-100. The difference between these preset types is that factory presets are
meant to be used as templates and cannot be overwritten and user presets can be overwritten and are designed to store your
custom presets. You can load either a factory or user preset to start with, edit the preset or run the various Wizards to alter the
settings for your application, then store the changes to any one of the 75 user preset memory locations. All settings created
when running the Wizards and all settings located in the processing modules (e.g., GEQ, limiter, delay, crossover, etc.) will be
stored to the preset. The exceptions are the Utility and RTA settings, which are global and are not stored to individual presets.

Recalling Presets

Recalling presets requires that you enter Preset Recall mode, select a preset, and then load it. This helps prevent accidental
switching of presets from the front panel DATA wheel.

Editing Presets

Presets are edited one of two ways: by running the various Wizards in the Wizard menu, or by pressing a processing module's
button (e.g., AFS, SUB, COMP, LIMITER, DELAY, etc.) and changing the module's settings. See 'Using The Wizards' on page
14 for information on using the various Wizards. See 'Editing Parameters' on page 24 for information on editing
processing module parameters.
Note:
The STORE button will light whenever a processing module's parameters have been changed from their stored
value, indicating the changes need be stored to memory to be retained. Any unstored preset setting changes will be
retained after a power cycle, but will be lost as soon as another preset is recalled.
