If I understand what you want, this is one approach:
initialSettings = {
{a -> a1, b -> b1, c -> c1, d -> d1},
{a -> a2, b -> b2, c -> c2, d -> d2},
{a -> a3, b -> b3, c -> c3, d -> d3},
{a -> a4, b -> b4, c -> c4, d -> d4},
{a -> a5, b -> b5, c -> c5, d -> d5}};
m = Length[initialSettings];
Manipulate[
is = {a, b, c, d} /. initialSettings[[parameterSet]];
Manipulate[
Column[{
StringForm[
"a = `1`, b = `2`, c = `3`, d = `4`",
a, b, c, d],
"\n",
f[a, b, c, d]}],
Row[{
Control[{{a, is[[1]], "Set a"},
initialSettings[[All, 1, -1]],
ControlType -> PopupMenu}],
Spacer[10],
Control[{{b, is[[2]], "Set b"},
initialSettings[[All, 2, -1]],
ControlType -> PopupMenu}],
Spacer[10],
Control[{{c, is[[3]], "Set c"},
initialSettings[[All, 3, -1]],
ControlType -> PopupMenu}],
Spacer[10],
Control[{{d, is[[4]], "Set d"},
initialSettings[[All, 4, -1]],
ControlType -> PopupMenu}]}]],
{{parameterSet, 1, "Select\ninitial values"},
Thread[Range[m] -> initialSettings],
ControlType -> PopupMenu}]
