Other Features

■Channel Linking

This interlinks the effect parameters for the two channels. You can use it with stereo recording or other applications. Input parameters are not linked.

Linking

Hold down the [EDIT CH SELECT] button for channel 1 and press the [EDIT CH SELECT] button for channel 2. Both [EDIT CH SELECT] buttons light up, showing that linking is in effect.

Canceling Linking

Press either one of the [EDIT CH SELECT] buttons to cancel the link. This makes only one button light up, and lets you edit individual channels in the usual way.

When linked, the effects for channel 2 use the parameter values for channel 1 (the reverse is not possible). Effect operations you perform while in this state are handled as settings for channel 1, and so the setting values for channel 2 remain unchanged in memory. When you cancel the link, the effects for channel 2 revert to the setting values they had before linking.

■Copying Settings Between Channels

This copies the effect parameters to the other channel. You can use this at times such as when you want to edit sets of parameters separately after making the same settings. Input parameters are not copied.

Copied settings are overwritten. The original settings cannot be restored after copying.

What follows is the procedure for copying from channel 1 to channel 2. To copy in the opposite direction, follow the same procedure with the channel numbers reversed.

1. Press and hold the [EDIT CH SELECT] button for channel 2 for several seconds. The message “COPY PARAM CH1 → CH2 OK?” is displayed.

2.Press [ENTER] to carry out the procedure. The setting values for channel 1 are copied to channel 2.

*If you don’t want to copy, press any button other than [ENTER].
