     Please tell me what you want to have in each of the 4 slide 
masters you listed. This might help me to make some suggestions later in 
the form of a  short presentation. Specifically, I'm interested in the 
layout for each master slide. Also, what default layouts do you want to 
apply to each of these master slides?
     There can be some confusion about slide masters. There are three 
terms that are used interchangeable: slide master, master side, and 
master page.
     When modifying a master slide, you can't directly apply default 
layouts to it. (You have already discovered this.) But what you can do 
is to use the tools in the toolbars to create layouts that match the 
default layouts. It takes more time than just clicking one of the 
default layouts.
