ENTER PRESET NAME IN

THIS FIELD

PRESET MODE

A Preset is a collection of information about how the MPD26’s faders, knobs, and pads will behave. Using

Presets allows you to save different configurations so you can quickly recall them at any time, without having

to reprogram the MPD26 every time. You can press [PRESET] at any time to call up this mode. In Preset

Mode you can load, save/copy and rename Presets – each of these functions can be accessed through the 3

different pages.

PAGE 1 – LOAD PRESET

1. While you are in Preset Mode, you can change Presets with the

[VALUE] dial below the screen. Turning the dial increments or

decrements the current Preset number and displays the screen on

the right:

When you do this, you will notice that ‘PRESS ENTER’ will begin to

blink.

2. Pressing [ENTER] loads the selected Preset. Pressing [<] or

[PRESET] cancels and returns you to the Preset that was last

selected.

PAGE 2 – SAVE / COPY PRESET

In Preset Mode, you can also save and copy a Preset to a new location.

This allows you to save any changes that you would have made to the

Preset in EDIT MODE.

Note that if you are saving the Preset to the same location (same preset

number) the screen will display ‘SAVE TO’ and if you are saving to a

different location (different preset number), the screen will display ‘COPY

TO’.

1. While you are in Preset Mode, press [>] until you see the ‘SAVE TO’

screen similar to the one shown above.

2. You can select the location where you want to save the Preset by

turning the [VALUE] knob.

When you do this, you will notice that ‘PRESS ENTER’ will begin to

blink.

3. Press [ENTER] to save current Preset to the destination. Pressing

[<] or [PRESET] cancels the operation.

PAGE 3 – NAME PRESET

While you are in Preset Mode, you can also change the Preset name. This

way you can assign specific names to different Presets so you can better

keep track and quickly access different controller configurations.

1. To name or rename the Preset, press the [>] button until you see

‘Preset Name’ displayed on the screen.

You will notice that the first letter of the name will begin blinking.

2. Turn the [VALUE] dial to change the blinking character.

3. To move between the characters, use [<] and [>].

4. When done, press [PRESET] again. The name will be saved.
