You will notice that the sample rate for the subwoofer channel can not be controlled directly.
This is because the center and subwoofer channels are on the same AES/EBU pair and thus must
have the same sample rate. We have, therefore, chosen to lock the sample rate indicators for the
center and subwoofer channels together. As you change the center channel's sample rate, the
subwoofer channel's sample rate changes along with it.

Press any of the other mode select buttons to exit from the wordwidth/sample rate mode.

Saving and Loading Presets

The entire state of the z-Q6 can be saved and recalled. Press the presets button once. This will
bring the z-Q6 to the state shown in Figure 8. To save a preset, use the middle knob (as
prompted by the display) to choose a preset number then press the button beneath the SAVE
indication. This will then bring the z-Q6 to the state shown in Figure 9, which confirms that the
SAVE operation took place.

Figure 9 - confirmation of preset save

There is one special preset that can not be over-written. This preset is given number 00 and stores
the z-Q6's "flat" settings. This is the preset you will want to use in order to return the z-Q6 to a
"blank" setting. If you attempt to over-write preset 00, the display will appear as in Figure 10,
which tells you that the preset was not saved and that you should choose another preset number.
