Turn-off preset
-
Just got my Spark - and it's a terrific thing.
Turned it on, started playing, got used to the physical controls and what effect the various knobs had.
Then, I hit preset 1 and the red LED came on. Got a clean sound with some rev and delay. Flicked through the other presets and played around a bit. Now, I want to turn off the presets and just go back to the basic amp sound without using the control-app. I can't seem to do it. Turn off and on? Same preset is loaded. Press the same preset button again? Nope.
How do I return the amp to the "no preset" setting?
Note: I know I can always make a clean setting in the app, with no effects, and save it to Preset 1 but how can I do it without going to the app everytime?
Thanks in advance.

you just can't.
even at first you weren't really without a preset.
actually I don't think it's possible to have a completely neutral setting, there is always a minimum contamination (imho)
but, if you have the preset active, you can remove the effects by setting the relative knobs to 0 and you will see the LED red flash -
@samueleonline Thank you. Having played with it for the last few hours, and with the app connected, I understand a bit more.
I know that I can turn off the delay, reverb and modulation by zeroing the knobs on the amp - but the gate, compressor and drive need to be disabled in the app. So be it.
I think this means that when I am using the amp without the app, I will save a clean 'neutral' sound on preset 1, but with the particular models of pedals I prefer in the chain, then control them with the knobs.
Thanks again,
R
