Your First Session with the MicroVerb 4 – Chapter 1

Storing Edited Programs

Once you are satisfied with the changes you have made to an edited Program, or are creating a new Program from scratch, you will need to store your edited Program back into memory. The MicroVerb 4 will temporarily store the currently selected Program in non-volatile memory. If you edit a Program, the changes you made will be lost the next time you power on the unit if you haven’t stored the edited Program into memory. If you select another Program from memory before storing the edited Program, your changes will also be lost.

✪Although the MicroVerb 4 has two banks (Preset and User), you can only store Programs in the User bank.

To store an edited Program: ¿ Press [STORE].

The Destination Program Number will flash. If the edited Program is from the Preset bank (Programs 00-99), the MicroVerb 4 will show the complement Program in the User Bank (by adding 100 to the Program number.) Programs can only be stored to the location provided, i.e. there is no way to store an edited version of Program 112 over Program 113.

¡Press [STORE] again.

The LED Display will momentarily flash quickly, indicating that the Program has been stored.

✪Any changes you make to a Program are temporary, until you store those changes into memory. If the Program you are editing is in the Preset bank, you must save the changes you’ve made to a location in the User bank. If you recall another Program

before storing,

your changes will be lost.

Bypassing Effects

At any time you can bypass the effects, thereby allowing the direct signal to pass through the MicroVerb 4 unchanged. This can be done in two ways:

•by turning the MIX knob all the way to the left,

•by connecting a footswitch to the [FOOTSWITCH] jack and pressing the footswitch.

Each time the footswitch connected to the [FOOTSWITCH] jack is pressed, Bypass mode is toggled on and off again. For more information about Footswitches, see Chapter 2.
