CENTER: Effect signal is output by the center speaker along with the dry guitar signal (standard setting).
SIDE: Effect signal is output by the side speakers. Sending the dry guitar signal and the effect signal to different speakers can create a unique spacious sound.

When the unit is new, the A bank is set to CHORUS and the B bank is set to DELAY. If you use the FXRS item in the Setup menu, these effects and their settings will be reset. (See “Initializing effect banks” on page 19 for details.)
Changing banks
Use the bank selection key to change between banks A and B. You can recall different types of effects by switching banks.
The indicator lights next to the active bank (A or B).
The effect settings made with the knobs are automatically saved to the active bank, so no special operation is necessary to save your changes.
The effect settings of a bank match the previously saved state when recalled, so the knob positions may not show the current parameter values. In such cases, moving a knob will immediately cause the knob setting to effect the parameter.
NOTE
When a bank is recalled, the indicator will show the selected bank, but the position of the effect knobs (1, 2 and LEVEL) will not change, therefore they will not match the bank settings. Move any knob to change the associated parameter value to the knob’s current position.
