Preset Menu
These Presets provide a useful starting point for using the
Intelli-X
2
in a real situation; the lter characteristics, delay
times and other parameters will need to be adjusted to suit the
equipment and venue.
User Presets
Use the rotary control to highlight one of the User Preset
Categories, press Enter to select it.
Initially all User Preset memories are empty. (Once Presets
have been renamed by the user (see below), the names
appear in the list instead.) Only the rst ve memories can be
displayed; use the Scroll button [2] to see the others. More
details about a Preset can be obtained by pressing the Enter
button, which conrms the Name and a Description.
Recalling a User Preset
– A User Preset may be recalled (loaded) by pressing
the Fn button from a Category list. This opens an option
window: Press Recall to load the Preset, or Recall&Mute to
recall it, but mute the outputs (for safety).
Naming and saving a Preset
Naming a Preset before saving it is strongly recommended.
When an empty Preset is selected from a Category List, the
Name eld (initially Unnamed Preset) is highlighted to indicate
that character editing may be performed. When complete,
press BACK/HOME to highlight the entire eld, and then turn
the rotary control to select the Description eld; this may be
edited in exactly the same way.
After pressing BACK/HOME again, press the Fn button, which
will open an overlay. Press Save to store the current unit
parameters in the Preset memory, together with the new Name
and Description; alternatively, select Cancel.
For full details on how to import presets from other
manufacturer’s DSP devices please visit the Apex website
(www.apex-audio.eu) and download the latest white-paper.
The Intelli-X
2
has 100 internal memories for storing Presets;
10 are pre-congured Factory Presets, and the other 90 are
denoted User Presets. The User Presets are arranged into nine
banks – called Categories - of ten.
A Preset is a complete set of unit parameters and settings,
including all audio parameters such as input selection and
level, equalisation, delay, input/output routing, crossover
conguration, limiter settings and so on. If one of the ten
Factory Presets is not suitable for your conguration, you
can set up the Intelli-X
2
(e.g. for a particular speaker make,
model and conguration), and store the settings in a User
Preset so that they can be recalled again for future use. You
can also name each User Preset and sort them into meaningful
categories (for example, by speaker manufacturer) to enable
easy access. Presets may be also be protected to prevent
inadvertent overwriting.
The Preset menu initially offers a choice of the Factory Preset
bank (Bank 0) or the nine User Presets banks (Banks 1 to
9). Only the rst ve banks can be displayed; use the Scroll
buttons h and i to see the others.

– A Factory Preset may be recalled (loaded) by
