User manual ART SGX 2000 EXPRESS

[. . . ] OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE SGX 2000 EXPRESS ADDENDUM TO THE SGX 2000 REFERENCE MANUAL A. R. T. has increased the power of the SGX 2000 by 400% and kept the ease of use factor unchanged. There are some variations between the two units which will be explained in this addendum. * Regenerated delay time increased * Refined acoustic environment simulator! [. . . ] This is normal, just turn the Encoder or use the keypad to select your next preset. Switching between banks and scrolling through presets is not the most efficient way to use your SGX 2000 EXPRESS!To make life easier, you should arrange the presets you are going to use in one spot. PRESET SLOTS First of all there are 200 preset "slots" in the SGX 2000 EXPRESS. If you store a preset in "slot 1", every time you access preset 1 in any bank, the preset you stored in "slot 1" will be present. What we suggest is to first listen to all the presets in the SGX 2000 EXPRESS and write down the bank and preset number of the presets you like and think you will use on a separate sheet of paper. Now, it's time to store those presets into slots which will not copy over factory presets. As an added precaution to overwriting factory presets, there is a "Lock" utility which you can turn on or off. See the Utility section in the main reference manual for more information. We suggest you start storing your presets beginning with slot 200 and working down. While in preset mode, find a preset in whichever bank you are in, press the Edit button, use the Encoder to select a memory slot, (the numeric display will start flashing the preset number) press the Store button. If no changes were made, the bank designator letter will indicate 5 which bank the preset came from. If you modified a preset or created one from scratch, the bank designator letter will change to a "U" indicating the preset is your work. If the preset location was blank, the LCD will look like: BLANK PRESET <no effects> NOTE: If you store any preset over an existing factory preset in any bank, that preset will overwrite each existing factory preset in each bank!We suggest you start storing your presets starting with slot 200 and working down. WHERE DID THE PRESET COME FROM If you juggle and shift presets around as well as making your own and then store them in user memory slots, you may lose track of which preset number in the bank you chose. In the Utility Mode, there is an easy way to find out where the preset came from. You will see a display in the LCD which looks like: OPEN SLOT = 19 USER RAM (U) = 19 BANK A, # 91 = 19 or SLOT or SLOT The first window indicates no preset is stored into the memory slot and it is "open", ready to have information stored into it. In the second window, the display indicates a user preset (a preset you created) is stored into that memory slot location. The last display indicates preset 91 from bank "A" is stored in memory slot 198. RECALLING A FACTORY PRESET If you store over a factory preset memory slot, you do not lose the four factory presets in that location forever. To recall a factory preset first press the Edit Mode button and then the Utility button. [. . . ] The Tuner at this point is inactive, you must change the Refrnc parameter to a string value to activate the Tuner. When you set the Refrnc parameter to Auto, tuning is simplified even more. Auto enables the SGX 2000 EXPRESS to know which string you are trying to tune and automatically switch the Reference parameter to the correct string/frequency. Detune will let you change the reference frequency A 440 plus or minus 2 half steps. [. . . ]
