I am assuming you are talking about the presets you have loaded to your amps when you're away from a computer. I have tried two methods: first was loading presets that are at leased based around the amp model next to the led light (such as Super Sonic presets being in Amber B, Green B, and Red B) but I ran into the problem of not using some amp models as much, like Metal 2000. So you're limiting your diversity but at least you have some sort of continuity. The Second method, and what I currently am using; I made a spreadsheet using Google Docs (really any program will work) that has 3 columns and 8 rows, with A-# in each column with the first column's A-# being in an orange font, second green, and third red. I printed out about 20 of these and write my presets in by hand and keep it handy by my amp. A little tip, if you do this make sure the paper is formatted to Landscape so you have more room, my first attempt was portrait and that gave me about 2 in to fill in names like "Boogie Strat Modified Neck Pickup". Another benefit of this is that it allows me keep a record of my Backups on Fuse. So if I want to restore to a backup called July 3rd I can look through my presets and know that backup has __ presets.
It probably took me about 20 mins to create the spreadsheet during some spare time but being able to print out copies as needed has been pretty helpful for me. Another thing I did (and this is really a testament to how much "free time" I have ha), I had some poster board paper (22 in x14 in) and made a larger version of my spreadsheet, so I can see my settings from a distance or without having to scan a smaller piece of paper like with the spreadsheets.
If you are interested I have the spreadsheet I use in a PDF file, and I was trying to upload/attach it here but can't figure out how, but if you want to message me with your email I will gladly send you an attachment - and that goes to anyone else interested, I will be glad to share with my fellow Mustang I and II brethren who didn't think the LCD screen models III and up have would be a problems ha.

thanks for the great ideas. it's suck to make up a great pre set just to lose it in the wash.
