Basic Operation: Part 4
QS7.1/QS8.1 Reference Manual 39
CHANGING THE NAME OF A PROGRAMOR MIX
Call up the Program or Mix whose name you wish to change. Make sure it is visible
in the display, and then:
1) Press [EDIT SELECT].
2) Press [120], which calls up the NAME function while editing. The name you
wish to edit will appear, inside quotation marks, in the middle line of the
display. One of the characters in the name will be
underlined
(probably the
first one, if this is your first time naming something). Pressing both [PAGE]
buttons at the same time will take the cursor back to the first character, if
that’s the one you want to change.
3) Change the underlined letter by moving the [EDIT VALUE] slider or pressing
the [VALUE] buttons.
4) Move the cursor back and forth among the available spaces by pressing the
[PAGE] buttons. Change any or all of the characters as you wish.
5) When you are done — there is a 10-character limit — go through the steps
described above to store the newly named Program or Mix somewhere. Then
press either [PROGRAM] or [MIX] to leave this mode.
COMPARE MODE
The [ BANK] button doubles as the [COMPARE] button (note the silkscreening on
the panel under the button). It allows you to go back and forth between the edited
version and the original version of a Program or Mix before committing yourself to
storing it.
Once a Program or a Mix have been edited, the word “EDIT” will change to
“EDITED” in the lower-left corner of the display. If [COMPARE] is pressed while
in an Edit Mode, you’ll see the word “EDIT” start flashing. If you play the QS
while it is doing this, you will temporarily be hearing (and seeing) the original
version of the Mix/Program. If you are editing a Mix and press [COMPARE], the
original unedited Mix is temporarily recalled. Likewise, if you are editing a
Program or its Effects Patch and press [COMPARE], the original Program will be
temporarily recalled. Pressing [COMPARE] again switches back to the edited
version, and the word “EDIT” will revert back to “EDITED” in the display.
