can store 32 programs, whereas the VC-12 offers the user an additional 96 programs for a total of 128
programs (32 x 4 = 128). Programs can be stored from any Valvetronix amp into the VC-12, and loaded
to another amp. As an added bonus, the VC-12 can control two Valvetronix amplifiers at one time. in
The areas assigned to Switches #1, #2, #3 contain 32 factory-preset programs in each memory bank.

so they will be safely stored in the VC-12’s memory.
