Each bank of 128 presets is identified by a superscripted Bank Number to the
right of the preset number. The bank numbers reset to 0 at the start of each
ROM card you have installed. So with the composer ROM installed, the
User banks will go from 0-3, then start over from 0-7 for the CMPSR banks.
To the right of the preset number and bank is the preset Category name
followed by the Preset Name.
 To Change the Preset
1. Place the cursor under the first character in the Preset Number field.
This is the “Home” position which is selected instantly when you press
the Home/Enter button. Pressing either of the two cursor buttons
repeatedly also gets you there.

You can select presets
from the Preset Number, Bank
Number, Preset Category or
Preset Name fields.
2. Turn the Data Entry Control knob on the front panel to select a new
preset number. If you turn the knob slowly, the presets advance one
number for each “click” of the knob. If you spin the knob quickly, the
numbers advance much faster (more than one number per click).
3. Play the keyboard (or press the Audition button) and listen to the
sounds made by your Proteus 2000!
4. TURN THE FOUR KNOBS on the front panel and note how they
change the sound of each preset! The button to the left of the knobs
changes the knob’s function. Don’t worry about ruining the sound, the
values are automatically reset as soon as you select a new preset.
The four User Banks can hold 512 custom presets. Feel free to overwrite these
since the factory user presets are duplicated in nonvolatile ROM.
