Overview
36 QuadraSynth Reference Manual
[SELECT] button switches between three groups of functionsÑone for editing the MixÕs
parameters (Mix Edit mode), one for editing the Programs in the Mix (Program Edit
mode), and the last for editing the associated Effect (Effects Edit mode).
➂Use the FUNCTION [¬] and [ ®] buttons to select a function (level, pitch, etc.).
Press FUNCTION [®] to move toward the end of the list, and FUNCTION [¬] to
move back toward the beginning. The selected function will be underlined in the display.
Press both FUNCTION [¬] and [®] simultaneously to get back to the first function in
the list.
➃If a function has multiple pages, select the appropriate page by using the PAGE
[¬] and [®] buttons.
The LCDÕs page number strip shows the number of pages in a function; an underline
shows the currently selected page (e.g., if the display shows Ò1
2
3Ó then page two is
selected).
Press the PAGE [®] button to select the next higher-numbered page, and PAGE [¬] to
select the next lower-numbered page. Press both PAGE [ ¬] and [ ®] simultaneously to
get back to the first page of the selected function.
➄Select a parameter on the page for editing.
There can be up to four editable parameters on a page. The right side of the display shows
these parameters with both text and bar graph meters to give instant visual feedback
concerning a parameterÕs value. Each of the four columns has an associated Quad Knob
and Button: the leftmost column monitors Quad Knob/Button[1], the second from left
column monitors Quad Knob/Button [2], etc. Turning a Quad Knob or pressing its
Button selects the associated parameter for editing. The currently selected parameter is
indicated by a thick line at the bottom of one of the four bar graph meters.
➅Change the parameter value.
You can edit the value either by turning the associated Quad Knob (for large value
changes) or pressing the VALUE [¯] and [-] buttons (for smaller changes).
Each bar graph indicates a parameterÕs approximate valueÑincreasing a value
increases the column height. With bipolar values that can go positive or negative,
turning a knob clockwise increases the column height upward from the midpoint,
and turning a knob counterclockwise increases the column height downward (more
negative value) from the midpoint.
Always refer to the parameter name strip in the display above the bargraphs for the
current parameter label and value.
Editing Program Parameters
Here is an example of how to use the QuadraSynthÕs editing features to change
Program parameters. Feel free to make changes and twist dials; these will not be
made permanent unless you store the Program (described later). Simply selecting
another Program cancels the results of any edits youÕve made unless youÕve stored
the Program.
➀Press the [PROGRAM] button.
This selects Program mode.
