Front Panel

The Front Panel

The buttons, wheels, and knobs on the front panel control your PC1, both during performances,
and when you're editing. Figure 3-1 identifies everything. In the PC161, Pitch Wheel, Mod Wheel,
SW3 and SW4 are located on left part of the front panel above the keys.
There are six main regions on the PC1's front panel

The Performance Region

The behavior of most of the buttons and knobs in this region depends on the performance mode.

Knobs A - D

The functions of Knobs A-D depend not only on the performance mode, but also depend on

Knob A controls the wet/dry mix for FX-A, the multi-effect block. You will notice a
change in the effect level if the Effect button's LED is Green or Amber.
Knob B controls the wet/dry mix for FX-B, the reverb block. You will notice a change in
the reverb level if the Effect button's LED is Red or Amber.
Knob C is usually a timbre control, although it can vary from program to program.
Knob D has different functions depending on the current program.

you can edit in AutoSplit mode (which is a subset of the Setup Editor)—while in Program mode,
press Main; hold Global and move a knob to select its Ctrl Num parameter; change its value;
