Preset Menu

The Preset Menu allows the user to select which preset from the FlashMic’s current configuration file is to be used.

The FlashMic’s configuration file can have up to 9 presets. The configuration file is loaded into the FlashMic from a computer, using the supplied FlashMic Manager software. Each preset determines the value of various FlashMic parameters, including recording level and mode, pre-record buffer duration and the file name. (The file name will appear in the header of the audio files.) The parameters are all defined within FlashMic Manager; see Configuration Files and Presets, page 27 for a full description.

To enter the Preset Menu, enter MENU mode by pressing the M/STOP button, and then make one SHORT DOWN TURN of the jogswitch. The display will show PRESET. Select this with a SHORT PRESS, and the name of the currently selected preset will be displayed. To select a different preset, make SHORT UP or DOWN TURNs of the jogswitch. The display will show the names of the alternative presets, as they were defined in FlashMic Manager. When the name of the required preset is displayed, a SHORT PRESS on the jogswitch will select it and load it into the FlashMic.

Preset Menu Display

Note that not all 9 presets available in a configuration file need to be defined in FlashMic Manager. Those not defined will be displayed as PSET N, where N is a number between 1 and 9, as PSET N is the default preset name used in FlashMic Manager. (However, note that PSET N will still be displayed for a preset that has been defined if the default name is not altered!) If selection of an undefined preset is attempted, the message EMPTY is displayed, indicating that this preset location cannot be used.
