8.Press [ENTER].

The effect settings will be copied to the currently selected performance.

When the display indicates “COMPLETED,” the copy operation has been completed.

If you copy multi-effect settings, those settings will be pasted into the effect parameters of the performance, regardless of the MFX Source setting (p. 56). This means that if the MFX Source is set to “PART” for either or both the copy source and copy destination, you may not be able to tell that the copy made any difference. If the MFX Source of the current performance is set to “PART,” change it to “PERFORM.” Additionally, if MFX Source of the copy source is set to “PART,” you will need to select “PATCH” in the above step 6, and select the patch assigned to that part in step 7 to copy the effect settings of the patch.

Initializing the parameters of a performance (PERFORM INIT)

This operation initializes the performance settings.

Since all performance parameters will be initialized, this is convenient when you want to create a performance from scratch.

The Initialize operation applies only to the currently selected performance; it will not change the content of other performances stored in user memory. If you want to restore all settings to the factory-set condition, execute the Factory Reset operation (p. 17).

1.Press [PERFORM] so it is lit and you are in Performance mode.

Select a performance you want to initialize.

2.Press [UTILITY].

3.Use PAGE/CURSOR [ ]/[ ] to select “2:PERFORM INIT.”

4.Press [ENTER].

5.Press [ENTER] once again to execute.

When initialization is finished, the display will indicate

“COMPLETED.” This ends the procedure.
