BANK & PRESET SELECTION
The Sub 37 ships with 256 user-editable preset locations, which are arranged in 16 banks of 16 patches
per bank. The following section will show you how recall existing patches, and also how to edit and
save your own patches. (The word patch is a holdover from modular synthesis, which requires patch
cords to connect the various modules.)
SELECT A BANK & PRESET (USING BANK/PRESET BUTTONS)
1. Press the BANK button, which will illuminate.
2. Press one of the PRESET buttons labeled 1 - 16. Your bank is now selected. (The BANK and PRESET
buttons will darken until a new preset is selected).
3. Now select a preset from within your selected bank by pressing the desired PRESET button labeled
1 - 16. The corresponding PRESET button will now remain illuminated.
NOTE: If you press a PRESET 1 - 16 button without first pressing BANK, you will simply choose presets
from within the current bank.
Take your time, listen to all the presets, and turn some knobs to get a feel for how you can use them
to alter sounds. To return to the original stored preset, just select it again by pressing the currently
illuminated PRESET number button.
NOTE: If your display screen is not in PRESET mode and you wish to see which bank you are currently
in, press the BANK button and one of the buttons from 1 – 16 will illuminate. Press the BANK button
again to return to PRESET selection mode.
SELECT A BANK & PRESET (USING CURSOR AND BUTTONS)
Make sure that the PRESET button in the PROGRAMMING section is lit. The display screen will show
the title of the preset (one or two lines) followed by its bank (BNK) and preset (PRESET) numbers. The
last line shows the category (CAT) for that preset.
You can scroll through individual presets by using the CURSOR button to highlight the PRESET
number field. Now use the buttons to scroll through all 256 presets. If you press and hold
either button it will scroll rapidly.
As you pass the 16th preset in a bank, the Sub 37 will jump to preset 1 in the next bank.
BROWSING ALL PRESETS IN A SPECIFIC CATEGORY
1. Press the CURSOR until you have highlighted the category type (MISC, LEAD, BASS, BRASS, etc.).
2. Now use the buttons to scroll through available category types.
3. Once you have made your selection press the CURSOR button until you have highlighted CAT.
4. The buttons will now allow you to scroll through every patch in your selected category.
NOTE: Category types can be assigned when you are in the SAVE mode.
SAVING AND NAMING PRESETS
Saving presets is a simple maneuver. Just remember that whenever you save a preset to a particular
location, the preset previously stored in that location will be deleted.
