The Presets

4

The PCM 80 has 200 factory-designed presets which are organized into four The Presets banks of 50 each (labeled P0, P1, P2 and P3). Each bank is organized in a matrix

of 5 rows of 10. Press the front panel Program Banks button to display the first bank. Press it again to switch to another bank. Simultaneously press Program Banks and either the Up or Down button to backstep through the banks. The display will show the bank label and the matrix location, the preset name, and the algorithm from which the effect is derived.

Turn SELECT to scroll through all of the presets in a bank in numerical order. Use Up or Down to jump forward or backward by 10. Press Load/✱ to load any displayed preset.

In the Program Banks mode (as in the Register Banks mode), ADJUST is a soft knob. Each preset has one or more parameters patched to this knob, providing a quick way to make useful changes to the effect. (A ■ symbol in the upper left corner of the display indicates that the currently running effect has an ADJUST knob patch.) When you turn ADJUST, the display will show the name assigned to ADJUST, as well as the patch value. Continue turning ADJUST to alter the patch value along its available range.

The program banks are organized as follows:

	Matrix
Bank	Location	Preset Type
P0	0.0–1.9	Multi Effects
	2.0–3.5	Modulation Effects
	3.6–4.9	Special Effects
P1	0.0–3.6	Rhythmic Echo and Delay Effects
	3.7–4.9	Ambience Effects
P2	0.0–1.0	EQ Effects
	1.1–2.4	Spatial Effects
	2.5–4.0	Gain Effects
	4.1–4.9	Resonant Chord Effects
P3	0.0–2.8	Reverb Effects
	2.9–3.9	Processed Reverb Effects
	4.0–4.9	Remix Effects

Each preset is described in this section with a header which indicates the matrix location, the program name, the name assigned to the ADJUST knob, and the range of ADJUST knob control. This header is followed by a brief description of the effect. For additional reference, at the end of this chapter is an alphabetical list of the presets, with references to bank and matrix location.
