'Preset' button second function on ASB ???

I just purchased a Prodyssey. So far so good. It sounds quite good, quite like the original. Though I feel it lacks some guts, compared to other synths I own (an Alesis Micron and Polivoks). Sounds a bit digital IMO, but still very nice to get an odyssey.

I have noticed that there seems to be a second function for the preset button, like the user button.
When you hold it for a second, the down and up led starting blinking one after the other.
I didn't notice any change in behaviour and didn't find any referrence of it in the manual.
(BTW I didn't get a printed manual with my unit, did you get one ???)

Does someone has a clue on that behaviour, and is it the same with other ASB ?

so this is one of those famous Anna's reply, right ? :P

I thought it might be some BPM indication. Haven't checked.

Zuruck zum beton.

Yep, I know. Although I'm French I'm very much into german bands of that area.

So this function starts the 'demo sequence', since it sends CC111.
However there is no demo sequence in my unit.
Does someone have demo sequence on their unit ?

No demo sequence on my PRO-12 or Prodyssey either.

Maybe it is like "Lost". You just have to press this button periodically. If you don't Creamware go insolvent/bust etc. Right, who didn't press that button? Mr Locke?
