    Moving Clusters of Presets

    Hello I'm wondering if I can move several Presets at once. For example: Can I move let's say Presets 1 through 10 up to 401 to 410? Or better yet; Presets 1, 4, 9, 11, 15, 16, 17, 20, 24 and 29 up to 401 though 410? So like a select, copy and paste. Thanks much! :)

    Why are we chasing the amp in the room sound?

    Excellent! I bet they sound great. They where a little beyond my budget so I went for the Presonus Sceptre S8's, I'm happy with them. I'm really sold on coaxial speakers.

    Just a couple of things to add since my last post about the Meze 99's. I recently read their quality has gone way down and the bass is out of control. There are several reviews on Amazon that mention this, enough to cause concern, so if you're thinking about them research them thoroughly. I...

    I know the M40x's are about $50 cheaper but have a look at the M50x's too. They are a bit more heavy duty and the pads are slightly thicker. Either way I think you'll do well.
