Editing Programs

The sound designers at Alesis have assigned three specific
editable parameters to each individual program in the Akira.
These editable parameters are accessed simply by turning the
Parameter X, Y and Z knobs. The following chapter contains a
description of each Akira program and its editable parameters
assigned to X, Y and Z.
