Operating the D3500

Loading Presets with the MASK function

- (continued)

Note: The Mask function is a Global parameter so it will

stay active and affect all the presets you load, until the

Mask is disabled.

To eliminate the masked function, press Load and select

PGM 10 again. Press and hold Store until the display reads

Set Mask. Press the Limiter button to select it (yellow LED

on). Press Store once again.

Press Load and select PGM 11, press Load again. Press

Limiter and notice that the Limiter settings from above

have reset to their original values.

Using the A/B Feature

After you load a preset you may want to make some

changes to the equalization curve or perhaps to one or

more of the digital effects. Once you make some changes

you may want to compare the edit with the original pre-

set saved in memory. You can compare the current set

with the preset that is stored in memory by using the A/B

switch. Try the A/B function to compare and preset to an

edit by following these steps:

• Press the LOAD switch and select any preset, then press

LOAD again to recall the preset into memory.

• Play some music through the D3500.

• Next, press the EQ button.

• Now, select a filter using the Filter Select buttons.

• Use the Filter Control Knobs to adjust the filter.

• At this point you will notice that the green LED on the

A/B switch is lit, indicating that there has been a change to

the original preset.

• Now, press the A/B switch again and the green LED will

flash indicating that the D3500 has now returned all the

EQ faders and effects parameters back to the positions

that were saved in the presets. You can continue to press

the A/B switch to toggle back and forth between the

saved preset and the new sound.

If you like the new edited preset, you can use the STORE

function to save the new preset either under the current

memory location or a new one.

MIDI and D Net

For expanded system control, the D3500 uses standard

MIDI, as well as Samson’s D Net communication protocols,

to transmit and receive digital control information to and

from additional D class units, other MIDI devices, or per-

sonal computers. You can use standard MIDI cables for

IN, OUT and THRU to configure a system using traditional

MIDI protocol. If higher speed communication is needed,

you can install the optional DN1, D-Net interface cards

and use standard XLR cables to configure a high-speed,

bi-directional data hook-up using Samson D-Net protocol.

The MIDI and D-Net control parameters are configured by

accessing the various menus

with the MIDI switch, located

on the D3500’s front panel.

When you press the MIDI switch several times you will

be scrolling though the various MIDI setup menu items

including MIDI enable, Channel, Omni, System Exclusive

and Program. The following section details each of these

modes and their associated parameters.

Setting the D3500 to Transmit and Receive MIDI

To enable the D3500 to send and receive MIDI data follow

these steps:

• Press the MIDI switch until that LCD reads MIDI OFF.

• Use the Data Wheel to select MIDI ON. Press store.

Setting the D3500 to Transmit and Receive Data Using D Net

In larger systems, the D3500 and other D class units can be

configured with an optional DN1 D-Net interface card for

high-speed communications. D-Net follows a similar pro-

tocol as MIDI, only at a much higher data rate. The beauty

of the D-net interface is, not only is it 30 times faster than

MIDI, but both send and receive are covered using a single

standard XLR cable.

To enable the D3500 to send and receive D-Net data fol-

low these steps:

• Press the MIDI switch a few times until the LCD reads

Midi

•

Use the Data Wheel to select D. Net.

Press store.
