Modifying the Mode Chapter 3 describes the CP-3’s four basic modes and all of their variable parameters. Any changes in the parameters of a mode in the User bank will

be automatically recorded and stored for future use. The CP-3 also allows you to store a new version of any Preset or User mode in any User register.

Storing a mode In addition to the 15 Preset modes set at the factory, there are 30 User registers (Bank A 1-15 and Bank B 1-15) that can be used to store customized versions of the original modes. Any of the parameters that can be accessed and changed with the Expanded remote can be used to modify the modes. Left/Right BALANCE and VOLUME settings are considered system para- meters and are not stored with each mode. EFFECT LEVEL, Front/Rear BALANCE, and parameters listed in the parameter menu, will be memo- rized in this new mode if it is stored in a User register.

If you modify a Preset (or the contents of any User register) and want to make a copy of it, press STORE. The display will read:

STORE MENU

>STORE THIS MODE SET MODE NAME.

Press PARAM once and the display will read:

(12-letter mode name)

PUT PRO LOGIC

(1st 4 letters)

The top line of the display will show the mode you are about to save. The second line shows the location (and current contents) of the register where the mode will be saved.

If you wish to store your new mode into the register shown, simply press STORE. This will erase the register contents and replace it with your new mode.

If you want the mode stored in a different location, press PARAM to display (and select) the next register. Repeatedly pressing PARAM will step you through all 15 User registers in Bank A, then through all 15 User registers in Bank B. (PARAM allows you to step back down through the list.) When you find the register you want, press STORE.

If you want to exit without copying your new mode, press SETUP to return to the operating mode you were in when you began the store procedure.
