Basic Operation

EDITING PROGRAMS

Each program features up to 20 parameters, which are organized into Edit Pages with as many as four parameters each. Press the front panel Edit Pages button

to cycle through available Edit Pages for the loaded program.

Parameters available on the selected Edit Page appear across the bottom of the front panel display, as shown on page 1-6. The number below each parameter corresponds with the number above the Edit knob used to change its setting. When a parameter setting is changed, it will appear in inverse video on the front panel display and the Edit Pages LED will light to show that the program has been modified. The LED will no longer be lit when another program is loaded or if the modified version is stored.

If another program is selected before the modified program is stored, the edited version will still appear as the loaded program. However, the Load LED

will light to indicate that a new program is cued for loading.

THE "ADJUST" PARAMETER

An "Adjust" parameter has been customized for individual programs, and in most cases controls several parameters at once to handle complicated editing processes. For instance, "Adjust" controls the liveness of space in Chamber and Room programs by changing Decay, Early Reflections, and EQ simultaneously.

The "Adjust" parameter is located on Edit Page 1 and controlled with EDIT knob 1. It appears in parenthesis, such as (MidRT) pictured at the right. When EDIT knob 1 is turned, the bottom line of the front panel

display shows a more complete description of the parameter function in that program. The "Adjust" parameter is MIDI-compatible with a range of 0 to 127.
