PRESETS and PRESET MODE

Super Pulsar can save and recall up to 8 presets. Every knob and button
setting is saved and recalled in the presets as well as expression pedal
position and all of the 9 Rhythm patterns that were in memory at the time
the preset was saved. Even some of the hidden functions such as
assignment of the MODE footswitch, Clock-In mode and assignment of
external switches are all saved within presets.
While in Preset mode, the waveform display lights up only one LED at a
time. The lit LED indicates which Preset is active. After you have entered
Preset mode, Super Pulsar will remain in this mode until you change back to
Normal mode. It remembers the last mode you chose through power cycles
and re-loads that mode upon powering up again.

CHANGING TO PRESET MODE FROM NORMAL MODE:

1. Press and hold the MODE footswitch.
2. After approximately 2 seconds of holding MODE, all 8 waveform
LEDs light up solid, you are now in preset mode. You can
release the MODE footswitch.
3. You will see just 1 of the 8 waveform LEDs lit up. Even though it is
now in Preset mode, Super Pulsar has not yet loaded the shown
preset, it is still set to the WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You
Get) setting. You must press and release the MODE footswitch again
to load the currently lit preset.
LOADING & ADVANCING Presets – Each press and release of the MODE
footswitch will jump to the next preset and load it. After the 8
last preset in the waveform display, Super Pulsar loads the WYSIWYG
setting. Press and release MODE again and it loads the first preset.
PRESET LED Blink – If you load a preset, then turn a knob, set a new Tap
time or change a button setting, the currently lit preset LED will blink,
indicating that a preset is loaded but something has changed since loading
it. Returning the knob or button to the setting held within the loaded preset
stops the LED from blinking. Expression pedal movements will not cause a
preset LED to blink. If you press and release MODE while a preset LED is
blinking, it will re-load the currently selected preset; press MODE again to
advance to the next preset.
SAVING PRESETS – You must be in Preset mode to save a preset. You can
save an edited version of the preset currently loaded or save a new sound you
created in the WYSIWYG slot of Preset mode, the save procedure is the same for
both. In addition, if you have created a sound while in Normal mode, you can
change over to Preset mode and then immediately save the preset. Here is the
procedure for saving presets:
1. Ensure you are in Preset mode. If you are not, see the section
above called CHANGING TO PRESET MODE FROM NORMAL MODE.
