Chapter 5: Using Stand-Alone Mode 53
Naming Presets
You can save custom names for presets, making
it easier to manage multiple presets for different
devices.
To name a Command|8 preset:
1 Press the Stand-Alone switch (located next to
the USB and MIDI status LEDs), to enter Stand-
Alone mode.
2 Press F3 PRE MIDI Recall.
3 Navigate to the preset you want to name by
rotating the channel 1 encoder until its number
(or previous name, if any) is displayed.
4 Press the channel 2 Select switch to enter Pre-
set Name mode. The LCD displays a flashing
cursor in the lower row of channel 1.
5 To name your preset, choose letters by rotat-
ing the channel 2 encoder (Char) until the de-
sired letter or number is shown. Scroll through
the entire range of choices to access upper case
letters.
6 Rotate the channel 1 encoder (Cursor) clock-
wise to advance the flashing cursor to the next
(or any) character space available for the preset
name. Rotate the channel 2 encoder to choose a
character, and repeat for additional characters.
7 When you have entered the desired name,
press the channel 7 Select switch (Okay). Or, to
cancel, press channel 6 Select (Cancel).
Naming Controller Assignments
You can give each programmable control its
own custom name. Some people get by with the
default controls and their own memory. Others
will appreciate the ability to give parameters
names that indicate the control to which they
are mapped, such as whether a fader or encoder
is mapped to a frequency slider in an EQ or a fil-
ter resonance control in a soft synth.
To save names for programmed controls:
1 Select the preset containing the control you
want to name.
2 Select the control for MIDI editing.
3 Rotate the channel 8 encoder (Name). The
LCD now displays Cursor, Char, Cancel, and
Okay in the upper row, with a flashing cursor in
the lower row above channel 1.
4 To enter a name, rotate the channel 2 encoder
(Char) until the desired letter or number is dis-
played.
5 Rotate the channel 1 encoder (Cursor) to
move the cursor to the next character space, and
repeat until you have entered the desired name.
