INTRODUCTION

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

Since a musician's time is better spent making music than reading manuals, we've tried to make this manual not only easy to use, but also fast and easy to find things when you need to. Therefore, the manual is broken down to 6 major sections, of which Section 4 will be probably be referred to the most. They are:

SECTION 1 - QUICKSTART

This section tells you how to use the most frequently needed operations. If you have to use your MIDIVERB III now but don't have the time to read the entire manual, Section 1 will quickly guide you through.

SECTION 2 - DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS

This section gives a brief explanation of all front panel and rear panel controls and indicators.

SECTION 3 - INTERFACING MIDIVERB III

Section 3 deals with the interfacing of MIDIVERB III to another MIDI device or into a MIDI system.

SECTION 4 - USING MIDIVERB III

Section4givesanoverviewofthesoftwarefunctionsandpagesofMIDIVERBIII. This section will probably be the most used part of the manual as it describes how to execute every function in a step by step manner. Actual display readouts of MIDIVERB III are also included.

SECTION 5 - SPECIFICATIONS
