13. Using the preset editing grid Creating a new setup from scratch can be a huge job, especially if you want to set up all 100 presets. The previous chapter showed how you can select each preset and change the content of that preset using the preset configuration screen. However, when you want to do lots of changes in many presets, you will definitely find the preset editing grid a more efficient tool. The grid is opened by clicking the small list icon depicted above. It gives you an overview of your complete setup in a condensed way, and at the same time it allows you to edit the setup content, using a few clever keyboard shortcuts. In order to make editing as efficient as possible, the grid can be used for preset content editing only. Preset names and comments are displayed but cannot be edited in this view. If you are not interested in the preset comments right now, you can simply collapse the comments column and concentrate on the preset data content. Page 24
You can browse the preset contents by using the 4 arrow keys, while the PageUp/PageDown keys jump to previous or next bank. Each line represents one preset, all MIDI message values are displayed in consecutive columns. In order to enter one specific value, just click the corresponding “cell” in the grid and type the value. However, you may find it easier to scroll through the possible values for a field by using the “cmd ↑” or “cmd ↓” key combinaons. Remark : whenever we mention cmd here, we mean the ⌘ command key on Mac. Windows users should use the Ctrl key instead. For the sake of clarity we don’t mention this each time in the text. A disabled MIDI command is displayed as “…”. You can enable it by typing a value, or by clicking “cmd ↑”, which will change its value from “…” to 0. The other way around, in order to disable a message you can click “Delete” or you can scroll the value down using “cmd ↓” until it reaches “…”. Remember, the Preferences menu gives you the choice to display ProgChange values in a range of 000-127 or 001-128 (see p. 10). This will be the case in this editing grid too: the first 5 columns, which represent PC1-PC5, will have their values in the specified range, starting from 0 or from 1, whatever you prefer. With UnO firmware, the relay outputs can be switched on, switched off, or “kept unchanged”. Therefore, the relay settings can have 3 possible values: “.” (=don’t change), “0” (=off) or “1” (=on). With Behringer firmware you can only choose between 0 or 1. Same applies for the expression pedals. Copying a value to all presets There will probably be several cases where you want to copy the same value to all presets. For instance the expression pedals might be used globally for the same adjustment, and therefore their setup needs to be copied to all 100 preset contents. Luckily this is just a matter of seconds when using the editing grid, thanks to the “cmd =” shortcut. Enter the required value once, then use the down arrow to go to the next preset, and click “cmd =” to copy the value of the preset above into this preset. This also brings you to the next row immediately, where another “cmd =” will again copy that same value. Well… just try it out for yourself, it’s much easier to use than to explain. If you keep the “cmd =” keys pressed, you will auto-scroll through your complete setup, and you will have copied the same value throughout your setup in a matter of seconds. Copy-and-increment a value Another frequent scenario is where you want to have increasing values programmed in consecutive presets. Typically, you might want to select the first sound of your device with preset 01, the next sound with preset 02, and so on. Therefore preset 01 needs to transmit ProgChange 001, preset 02 ProgChange 002, and so on. This can again be accomplished in a matter of seconds, the same way as described above, now using the “cmd +” key combination. One “cmd +” click will copy-and-increment the value of the previous preset into the data field of the current preset, and then advance the cursor to the next preset. Specify ProgChange 001 for the first preset, click the down arrow once, and then keep the “cmd +” key pressed for a few seconds. As a result, all 100 presets will have a ProgChange message ranging from 001 to 100. That easy! For the sake of completeness, a copy-and-decrement is also possible, using the “cmd –“ keys, although that will probably be less used. Page 25
