1.5 Mem Protect

The PCM 80 provides a memory protection feature to prevent accidental overwriting of your stored effects. When this control is set to On, pressing the front panel Store button will cause an error message to be displayed. To enable the Store function, turn ADJUST to select Off.

1.6 Auto Load

This control allows you to choose whether PCM 80 effects will be loaded immediately when selected with SELECT and the Up and Down buttons (On), or whether they will require a press of the Load/✱ button (Off).

1.7 Patch Update

When a controller is patched to an effect parameter, this control determines when the controller will take control of the parameter. If Immediate is selected, stored parameter values will jump to the current controller position when the effect is loaded. If Delayed is selected, the stored parameter value will remain in effect until the controller is moved. See Patching later in this chapter.

1.8 Initialize

Selecting this control arms the PCM 80 to revert to its factory settings.

This will erase all registers and setups, and return the PCM 80 to its default states.

If you press Store, the display will ask "Are you sure?" (Press STORE). If you don't want to reinitialize your unit, press any button to cancel the operation. If you press Store in response to this message, the display will flash "Restoring original factory settings" and your unit will be reinitialized.
