Re-initializing
To re-initialize the MidiVerb 4, hold down both [PROG] and [D] while turning on the
power. This will reset all Utility parameters to their default settings, and will recall
Preset 01.
Important: The Programs in the User bank are erased when re-initializing the unit this way.
Be sure you have stored these Programs into some sort of data storage device via MIDI
System Exclusive
before
performing a re-initialization (see Chapter 6).
