Effects Section Components

Program Selection Knob

You can use this knob to assign one of 100 effect programs to

your mix. Turning the knob to the right increments the program number, and turning it to the left decrements the program number. You can control the level of the effect for each channel via the

channel’s AUX B knob. You must PRESS the effect knob to activate the selected effect.
