◊Locked DESTINATION PRESETS cannot be overwritten. In this case, the display informs you that the process cannot be completed. Since SOURCE PRESETS will not get lost during the copying process, it does not matter whether they are locked or not.

When all settings have been made and confirmed with OK, the DESTINATION PRESET is directly overwritten and the display indicates the name of the new preset. Locked SOURCE PRESETS are stored as unlocked presets. To lock them, go to the next page of the STORE menu (PRESET-LOCK). You can also unlock locked DESTINATION PRESETS there.

Additionally, you can copy all presets in one operation, by selecting ALL PRESETS in both SOURCE and DESTINATION PRESETS. Prior to that, all presets in the destination memory must be unlocked. When you confirm with OK, the displays warns you that all DESTINATION PRESETS will be overwritten.

5. Audio Connections

The BEHRINGER ULTRADRIVE PRO DCX2496 has standard electronically balanced inputs and outputs. The circuit design has an automatic hum suppression with balanced signals and is able to operate, without problem, even at highest levels. Externally-induced mains hum etc. is thus efficiently suppressed.

The servo-function, also automatic, recognizes the connection of unbalanced pin assignments and changes the nominal level internally so that there is no difference in level between the input and output signals (6 dB correction).

◊Please ensure that only qualified persons install and operate the device. During installation and operation the user must have sufficient contact to earth. Electrostatic discharges might affect the operation of the unit.
