Preset Creation: A Summary
Preset creation is an easy process involving the use of the program controls shown in the KEYBOARD LAYOUT
section of this manual.
You start by choosing a preset number using the DE knob and hitting the ENTER button. Choose a preset num-
ber higher than 3 so as not to overwrite the software presets. You can either choose an unused number
or overwrite a previously written preset.
Once the preset number is selected, you hit the EDIT button to start assigning tasks to whichever controls you
select. The LCD panel will tell you to Press or Move Any Controls. You may move or press a knob, a slider, a but-
ton, a keyboard key or a pedal.
The LCD will tell you what you are programming once you have moved or pressed it.
Now, you will use the Page Up or Down buttons to view the parameters available for assignment. Use the DE
knob to select the parameter value you want.
When the value is selected, use the Page Up or Down buttons to move to the next parameter. When all para-
meters for the control have been defined, you will hit the STORAGE button and the LCD will ask if you want to
store the parameters you have selected – either NO or YES.
Use the buttons underneath YES or NO to make your choice.
If you need to program additional controls for the preset, hit the EDIT button and once again you will be asked
to Press or Move Any Controls. Repeat the procedure above for all the controls you desire to program for the
preset you are creating.
When all the controls have been assigned to the tasks you want them to accomplish, you will have hit the STO-
RAGE button and selected YES following the programming of the last control. The LCD screen will display a blin-
king cursor following Preset Num. At this time, you may name your preset (see the Preset Naming section on
page 7) or decide to use only the number of the preset (4 – 30). If the number is enough, hit STORAGE again
and the LCD will ask "Are You Sure?" Press the button under YES and the controller will return you to the Preset
page with your preset number.
If you decide to name the preset, follow the procedure in the Preset Naming section on page 7. The last step is
hitting the STORAGE button at which time the LCD will ask, "Are You Sure?" Press the button under YES and
the controller will return you to the Preset page with your preset name and number.
It is essential that you remember that YOU MUST PRESS THE STORAGE BUTTON TWICE TO SAVE YOUR PRESET
SETTINGS! The first time you will be asked if you want to "Store Parameters."
The all-important second time, the LCD will ask, "Are You Sure?" When you hit the YES button that time, your
preset is saved.
The following Procedures will help familiarize you with the programming flexibility of the VMK-149/188.
They will show you the steps involved in assigning parameter values to the programmable controls of the key-
board. The procedures will show the ease with which you can create presets to control both studio and perfor-
mance software.
