PRESET BASICS
Rumble Studio 40/Stage 800 comes with 100 sequentially numbered presets, and users can create and add
even more. Each preset has three “layers” that appear in the DISPLAY WINDOW. These are the PRESET LAY-
ER (top), SIGNAL PATH LAYER (middle) and CONTROLS LAYER (bottom); the three LAYER BUTTONS provide
access to each layer (see illustration below).
The PRESET LAYER is active when the amplier is rst turned on (on startup, Rumble Studio 40/Stage 800
loads the last preset used). To scroll through presets, turn the ENCODER (see illustration below); whichever
preset is displayed becomes active. Presets can also be selected by footswitch (see pages 48-49).
The SIGNAL PATH LAYER of each preset consists of one of Rumble Studio 40/Stage 800’s many amplier mod-
els, and one or more of dozens of eects and their order (or no eects in some cases). The amp model appears
in the center of the SIGNAL PATH LAYER display. Eects appear in slots to either side of the amp model, rep-
resenting their position in the signal path—“pre” to the left (placed “before” the amp) or “post” to the right of
the amp model (as in an eects loop). Select any of these items by turning the ENCODER; the selected item in
the SIGNAL PATH LAYER will have a white indicator arrow below it and text describing its position above it (see
illustration below).
The rst preset (01) is shown here in the PRESET LAYER.
The amp model within the preset is selected here in the SIGNAL PATH LAYER, as indicated by the white arrow
and the word “amplier.” It is anked by one occupied eect slot (right) and one empty eects slot (left).
