About Memory

The current mixer settings are held in “current memory.” Current memory contains the following settings.

•Source level/pan settings

•Source assignment settings

•Group mix

(volume, pan, reverb send, EQ, and solo for each group)

•Reverb on/off

The M-48 provides 16 memory locations to which the current memory can be stored and from which a desired memory can be recalled.

The most-recently stored or recalled memory number is called the “current memory number.”

Storing Mixer Settings to Memory (Store)

Here’s how to store the current memory.

*You cannot execute this operation if the [STORE] button has been disabled in the preference settings (p. 22).

1Press the [STORE] button.

The [STORE] button will light, and Store mode will be on.

At the same time, all [SOLO] buttons will start blinking. The [SOLO] button of the current memory number will be lit.

*Store mode will turn off if you press the [STORE] button once again.

*The [1-8] or [9-16] button will blink to indicate the range of memory numbers shown.

Store/recall operations can be performed from the M-48 itself, the M-400, or a computer.

*With the factory settings, memory locations 1–16 contains the default mixer settings.

Backing up the current memory

The current memory is backed up to the M-48’s internal flash memory approximately every 30 seconds. The next time the M-48 is started up, the backed up settings will be reproduced.

If you want to immediately back up the current memory, perform the following step.

1Hold down the [STORE] button for approximately two seconds.

The current memory will be backed up.

*This operation does not provide storage to memory numbers 1–16. If you want to carry out storage, proceed as described in “Storing Mixer Settings to Memory” on this page.

4 Press the [STORE] button to execute the Store operation.

You can also execute the Store operation by pressing the blinking

[SOLO] button.

When the Store operation has been completed, the [STORE] button

will go out and Store mode will turn off.

* If you decide to cancel without storing, press any button that’s not

blinking.

* Storing will take approximately two seconds. During this time, the

M-48 will not be operable.
