Various Procedures Recalling (switching) presets With the MTX/MRX system, input/output port patching, matrix mixer settings, and the parameters of XMV amps within the same MTX/MRX system are stored together as a "preset" in the MTX3 and in MTX-MRX Editor for recall when desired. Each MTX/MRX system can store 50 presets. MTX-MRX Editor is used to edit presets. Each preset contains settings such as the following. • Input/output port settings and patching • Input/output channel gain and EQ settings • Matrix mixer settings • Zone settings • Routing settings • Effect settings • DCA and mute group settings • Parameter settings for XMV devices within the same MTX/ MRX system • Preset name For details, refer to "MTX-MRX Editor User Guide."  Switching presets from the MTX3 1. While watching the [PRESET] display, use the [s]/[t] buttons to select the preset number that you want to recall. The [PRESET] display will flash during this time. 2. Press the [ENTER] button to confirm your selection. The [PRESET] display will stop flashing; the preset has been recalled. NOTE • If you leave the device for 30 seconds with the [PRESET] display flashing, it will revert to the previous preset number. • If a control panel such as a DCP series unit is connected, you'll be able to easily switch presets.
