Making Your Own Programs - Chapter 4

Turn the [VALUE/ENTER] knob until the display looks like this:

ADD ROUTE FROM: DLY 2 MIX

Press [VALUE/ENTER] to select the route.

The display will flash until the [VALUE/ENTER] button is pressed. At the same time, the Òpatch cordÓ connecting the Delay to the Reverb will appear. Set the level on page 2 as before.

Press the [BLOCK >] button until the pointer appears above L OUT, and turn the [VALUE/ENTER] knob until the display looks like this:

ADD ROUTE FROM: RVB 3 LEFT

Press [VALUE/ENTER] to select the route.

The display will flash until the [VALUE/ENTER] button is pressed. At the same time, the Òpatch cordÓ connecting the Reverb to the L OUT will appear.

11Press [BLOCK >] and then press [VALUE/ENTER] to route the right output of the Reverb in Block 3 to the R OUT.

Adjusting Parameters

At this point, the tutorial ends, since there are so many directions you can go in. Each type of effect has its own set of parameters. Using the steps in the first section of this Chapter, you can get an idea of how to edit the other effectÕs parameters, even though they each perform a different function. Refer to Chapter 5 for a list of controls, including a list of the parameters used in each of the available effects.

We highly recommend experimentation in this area. Because the Q20 is so flexible, youÕll be able to create effect combinations never before possible. Example: You can route a BlockÕs output to its own input to create interesting ÒfeedbackÓ effects.

However, the level of this Òpatch cordÓ is very important to avoid unwanted clipping. This is why when such a ÒfeedbackÓ connection is made, the level is automatically set to 100% attenuation (-48dB) to avoid sudden, unexpected loud levels. Only through experimentation, and examination of the Preset Programs, can you start to create truly innovative effect Programs.
