Editing Effects

Selecting an Effects Patch

To select an Effects Patch from either the User bank or the Preset bank, you must be
in either Program Edit mode (if currently using Program mode) or Mix Edit mode (if
using Mix mode), by pressing the [SELECT] button until the correct display appears.
Use the FUNCTION [¬] and [ ®] buttons to scroll through the functions in the
display until the word EFFECT is underlined. The display should look like this (from
Program Edit mode):

Use Quad Knob [1] to select an Effects Patch (0Ñ127) (or use the VALUE [¯] and [ -]
buttons). Use Quad Knob [3] to select either the Preset bank or the User bank.

In Mix Edit mode, the Effect function has two additional parameters. Quad Knob [3]
turns on and off the Link function. Quad Knob [4] lets you select which Channel (1Ñ
16) of the Mix you wish to link to. If Link is on and you set the Channel to 1, then the
Mix will automatically use the Effects Patch used by the Program on Channel 1.
When the Link function is off, Quad Knob [4] is still used to determine what MIDI
channel the Effects Patch will be set to for receiving MIDI controller information for
the Modulators (see the Mod section later in this chapter for more on real-time MIDI
control).
The number of the Effects Patch you wish to use, the effect send levels and effect bus
assignments are saved as part of a Program or Mix, from Program Edit or Mix Edit
mode. Keep in mind that these are separate from any changes that will be made to
the Effects Patch itself. If you are changing settings in both modes, you will have to
STORE not only the Effect Patch, but the Program and/or Mix, in order to hear your
changes in the future.
The actual arrangement of depth of reverb, delay time, etc., is saved as an Effects
Patch from Effects Edit mode. It is possible for different Programs and Mixes to share
the same Effects Patch. So keep in mind that when you edit an Effects Patch, it may
affect the sound of any other Programs and Mixes that use the same Effects Patch.
