VT Bass Deluxe Programming Question

I've had this thing a few months and I love it.

I am not sure about one aspect of it after watching a vid the other day and I don't want to test it out of fear of messing up my settings.

If I have a setting I really like and I want to turn let's say the drive up just a little bit. I just go to that effect, turn the drive knob until it stays on then turn it up a bit, then double click the button for that patch. All the other settings stay the same as long as I don't turn them is that correct?

A guy on a video said that you had to set all the knobs to their "current setting" with before you could adjust anything otherwise they would save where they are currently and not where they are saved at.

It is my understanding that if you haven't touched that knob regardless of where it is currently, then nothing changes except for the knobs you DID turn.

Correct.
In a preset, once you start turning any knob, you will get a solid light when you get to the current "set" position of that knob.
Once there, the light will blink slower the farther away you get from the actual "set" position.
After any adjustment, if you turn that preset off or turn a different preset on, nothing changes on the preset.
But if you click it twice quickly, the preset will re-save, remembering the knob or knobs new position(s).
It will also remember if the FX loop is on or off at the time of re-save.

Click to expand...

But if you only turn the drive knob then the character knob will not be affected regardless of it's current position.
