Read the advance manual and the FAQ. Where you do it is in the util menu on the amp.

Is there a Util menu setting for the 4 button? I was testing a 4 button and M3 today and only saw and option for the 2 button

So if you use both the 2 and 4 button switches, how many Quick access settings can you access? Still only 3?

From what I see yes, the two button "mode" setting only lets you pick QA1 and QA2 which is what is set for the 4 button.

Well if you have the Q1 Q2 Q3 on the four button.
Then if you have the 2 button set to up down that gives you one up and one down for each one. That gives you quick access to 9.

So if you do that you can set 9 quick accesses settings in the utility menu?

No you would have to get your 3 presets for each QA button arraigned together.

IE

QA1= Preset 10, set Preset 9 and 11 to two others you want access to
QA2= Preset 20, set Preset 19 and 21 to two others you want access to
QA3= Preset 30, set Preset 29 and 31 to two others you want access to

So you select QA1 giving you Preset 10 and use the two button switch to get 9 and 11 quickly.

Of course you could just use the bank switch and up and down on the 4 button.

Lots of ways when you combine the two footswitches.

In addition to Stinger22's suggestion, I was thinking that if you're working your way through a set, you could cluster your presets around the banks (presets at multiples of 10), and use the bank button--in between songs, say--to reach each starting point, then use the 2 button switch up/down a preset or two as needed, and you can leave the 4 button in mode 3 (effects) during a song to tweak presets on the fly.

If we get the 4 button switch, do you get a menu on the amp to change its behavior like the 2 button one does? If not is this planned with new firmware?

Button # 1 changes the behavior - so you can do it from the stage. 3 modes = stomp one, stomp two, stomp three, stomp one. Just loops around the modes.

We need a 13 button switch.
1 to change modes.
2 to change banks.
10 for direct access to all of the presets in that bank ie 00-09, 10-19 etc.

Hey Guys,

If you need access to more than three QA Presets in a set, you may want to consider just saving your Presets in a certain order. The III, IV, and V allow you to save any preset to any slot, without the need for FUSE. That way, you can just advance through the Presets one at a time.
