Operating Modes - Fractal Audio MFC-101 Owner's Manual

Fractal Audio Systems MFC-101 Manual

3.4 Operating Modes

The MFC-101 offers three different variants of PERFORMANCE MODE, called "Operating Modes". These are
PRESET MODE, SONG MODE, and SET MODE. The details of these operating modes are covered throughout this
manual. Key concepts and differences are noted in the table below:
MODE PRESETS
PRESET MODE: 128 Presets total are arranged in
strict numerical order
The number of preset footswitches
per Bank is set by the global Bank
Size: 1, 5, 10 or 15.
SONG MODE: Uses the same 128 presets as
PRESET MODE, but arranged as
desired on the preset footswitches
for each of 100 Songs. The number
of presets which can be added to
each song is 15. If the global Bank
Size is lower, some will be
inaccessible.

SET MODE {1-10} : Uses the same Songs as SONG
MODE, and therefore their same
Presets.
NOTE: You can change the Operating Mode at any time. See section 12.5.1 on p. 55 for details.

MFC-101 presets are numerically sequenced across banks in PRESET MODE, but the actual MIDI Program Change
commands sent may be modified freely. See Presets and Program Changes on p. 22

Whereas PRESET MODE and SONG MODE are singular entries in the Operating Mode menu, there are actually 10
entries for SET MODE, one for each of the available set lists.
