Presets
A preset is a named and numbered location of a programmed sound that resides in the GNX4. Presets can
be recalled with the Footswitches or the DATA WHEEL. The GNX4 comes with 80 Factory and 80 User
presets. The Factory Presets do not let you store changes to them. The User presets let you store changes.
From the factory, the 80 User presets are exact duplicates of the 80 Factory presets. This lets you create
your own presets without worrying about losing any of the original presets. When you select a preset, the
name of the preset appears in the green display and the number of the preset appears in the red numeric
display. The User LED to the left of the DATA WHEEL lights indicating the User preset is active. The
Factory LED lights indicating a Factory preset is active and the Card LED lights indicating a preset from a
Compact Flash

Memory Card inserted into the GNX4's Memory Card slot is active.
Footswitch Modes
When you first apply power to the GNX4, it powers up in one of three Footswitch Modes: Preset,
Stompbox/Control, or Recorder. The Footswitch Modes are selected in two different ways:
Press the MODE button (located to the right of the DATA WHEEL)
Press and hold Footswitches 4 and 5 simultaneously.
Depending on which mode is selected, the UP/DOWN footswitch LEDs will light a different color. When
Preset Mode is selected, the UP/DOWN footswitches will be lit green. When Stompbox/Control
Mode is selected, the UP/DOWN footswitches will be lit yellow. And when Recorder Mode is selected,
the UP/DOWN footswitches will be lit red. In any of the modes, the display shows the selected preset's
name and number. The vertical LEDs on the Matrix indicate which effects are active for the selected preset.
Preset Mode
The GNX4's Presets are grouped into sixteen banks of five presets. (See the Preset List on page 112
for a complete list of Presets with their respective Bank locations.) When Preset Mode is active the
UP/DOWN footswitches are used to select one of the sixteen Factory, User, or Card Banks. Successive
presses of the UP/DOWN footswitches advances through all Factory/User/Card Banks. Pressing and
holding the UP/DOWN footswitches scrolls through the Factory/User/Card Banks. Once a Bank is
selected, Footswitches 1-5 will flash indicating a preset within that bank needs to be selected. If a
preset is not selected within 5 seconds, the GNX4 returns to the currently selected bank and preset. A
second press of the same footswitch bypasses the preset. Another press reactivates the preset.
