Filter Preset for a Zone Output (XMC-1)

[Timster]

Hi. I was hoping I could apply a filter preset to the Zone 2 output from my XMC-1, so that I could EQ my outdoor speakers. I have looked through the manual, and the menus, but cannot see a way to do this - it doesn't seem possible.

Has anyone done this or can anyone confirm that I'm outta luck?

Thanks :-)

Presets can be selected manually or associated with specific INPUTS.

However there is no specific way to associate a Preset with the Zone 2 output.

OK, maybe that will work for me. I want to play my streamer (Node 2i) outside with some EQ. So could I duplicate an input, give it a new name like "Patio", set the triggers to only turn on the amp for the patio and then apply a "preset 2" to the input? (Preset 1 is already for the speakers inside).
