I’ve set the H90 bypass to AB only, allowing the overdrives to work when the H90 is off. Do I need to apply this setting to every single preset for the overdrives to work when the H90 isn’t used, or is there a more efficient method than Insert 1/AB only to replicate my H9 Max setup?
The Bypass mode settings are global, so they will work across all Programs. What is not global is the creation of an insert. You must choose the position of the insert on a Program basis.
2. Since the H90 is now handling all delay functions from the Volante, I plan to create specific presets for delays (like slap, 1/4, and 1/8 notes).
If you like delays like the Volante you’ll appreciate our Head Space algorithm.
When I need delays with modulation or pitch, is it more effective to combine these in a single program and toggle the effects on and off as needed?
It’s really up to you and what your requirements are during a performance. You’ll find there are several self contained algorithms that might meet your criteria with these combinations of effects – SpaceTime, Mod Delay, H910/H949, MicroPitch – but of course with H90 you may combine two powerful algorithms together. Using the new Perform mode you have the freedom to toggle individual presets/algorithms on or off during a song, or you may even map those functions to your MIDI controller. Some people take the easy route, and just create Programs with one effect bypassed and just recall it via MIDI. With spillover, transitions are seamless. It all depends on the level of control you require.
3. Will the MC6 be able to turn on a program with a specific preset turned on (if there are two normally on)?
Yes, this is possible using MIDI commands, a PC followed by a CC command to turn a preset off. You’ll need to map your own CC# to the “A act/byp(m)” command (or B act/byp (m)) in the H90’s MIDI system menu and send that with value = 0 for Off, value=127 for On.
Or again, take the easy way out and create another Program with one preset bypassed and just recall that.

4. IS there any different settings to change how the tuner looks, or is there just the one visbility setting (ie no strobe , lighting etc). Thanks for your help! Alex
There are no settings for adjusting how the tuner looks on the display at the moment. What were you looking for?
