The MPD24 features different Preset banks that you can load and write to. When
you turn on the MPD24, it will automatically go into PRESET MODE and Preset 1
will be displayed on the screen. You can also press the [PRESET] button to call up
this mode. In PRESET MODE you can load, save/copy and rename Presets. You
can navigate between these three pages with the [ < ] and [ > ] buttons.
What is a Preset?
A Preset is a collection of information about how
different sliders, knobs, and pads will behave. Using
Presets allows you to save different configurations so
you can quickly load them when you need them,
without having to reprogram the MPD24 every time.
Page 1 - Load Preset
1. While you are in PRESET MODE, you can change
Presets with the [VALUE] dial below the screen.
Turning the dial increments or decrements the current
Preset number and displays the screen on the right:
When you do this, you will notice that ‘PRESS
ENTER’ will begin to blink.
2. Pressing [ENTER] loads the selected Preset. Pressing
[ < ] button or [PRESET] button cancels and returns
you to the Preset that was last selected.
Page 2 – Save/Copy Preset
In PRESET MODE, you can also save and copy a Preset to a
new location. This allows you to save any changes that you
would have made to the Preset in EDIT MODE.
Note that if you are saving the Preset to the same location
(same preset number) the screen will say ‘SAVE TO’ and if
you are saving to a different location (different preset
number), the screen will display ‘COPY TO’.
Destination
1. While you are in PRESET MODE, press [ > ] button until you see the ‘SAVE TO’ screen
similar to the one shown above.
2. You can select the location where you want to save the Preset by turning the [VALUE] knob.
When you do this, you will notice that the ‘PRESS ENTER’ segment will begin to
blink.
3. Press [ENTER] to save current Preset to the destination. Pressing [ < ] button or [PRESET]
button cancels the operation and returns you to the preset play mode.
