Dan,
I use also the "types" to make a quick compare between different setups.
That works good, but have the disadvantages that all the remaining parameter get a "reset" means have the default values.
So you can compare for example direct with another direct or music with another music,
but have allways on your mind that you have the preset values(no RMC data,no calibration/gain,bass,,,,are all at default)
I do compare the +3dB trick with different gain in direct mode for example.
If you want compare different setups-but not types-you can do it without loosen your other values.
