Need help figuring out the Source Audio Aftershock pedal

That's not *quite* right. Here's my understanding of how they work.

Red presets recall all parameters independent of where the knobs are. So, for example, if your presets has a 50/50 clean/driven mix, it will recall the mix as 50/50 even if the knob is not at noon. However, if you move the knob it WILL change the value.

Green presets recall presets with the knobs affecting the relevant parameters. So if you take that same preset above (that has a 50/50 mix) but make it a green preset, if your mix knob is set to 100% clean when you load the preset, it will load as 100% clean. Again, if you move the knob the value will change.

In short, it's about whether or not the knobs matter when you FIRST load the preset, but in both cases you can move the knobs to adjust the values.

 

only thing to add to @Adamixoye comments are that while you can change settings in red mode, they will go back to their previous saved state upon bypass and re-engagement of the preset. Also, green mode saves all backpage settings like red mode, the 4 physical knob positions on the pedal will override the settings when loading those presets.

you will need to use the app to burn the presets to the toggle positions. Essentially overwriting the stock settings for the toggle switch. You can change the engines from their default as well. So the toggle switch will hold your 6 presets (3 per LED color).

That’s why you need the editor to burn it. Once you’ve built your preset, hit the burn button, and it will give 6 options where to burn to. (Toggle switches left, center, and right normal/green and preset/red).

 

Green is Normal mode, Red is Preset mode.

 

Works on PC as well, you just hit the save as button and select which slot you want to save to.
