Using the KOLEKTOR

This chapter gives general information about using the KOLEKTOR.

Using the front panel

We designed the KOLEKTOR to be as simple as possible to operate. The front panel display gives clear information about what you are doing and, although there are many sophisticated features, all the most commonly used ones require only one or two key presses.

The illustrations on the next page explain the function of each of
the front panel keys, and the meaning of the different parts of the
display.	11
