Preset Display; Preset Selector, Tap Delay And Led; Internal Fx Mute - Mackie PPM1012 Owner's Manual

62. PRESET DISPLAY

These displays show the number of the currently
selected effects preset, as shown in the list of presets
silkscreened to the right. Rotate the preset selector
knob to choose a preset.
The new preset will be loaded approximately 1/4 of
a second after you stop turning the knob, and will be
stored into the FX memory after about one second.
When the powered mixer is turned on, the FX section
will load up the last-used preset.

63. PRESET SELECTOR, TAP DELAY and LED

Rotate these endless controls to select one of the 24
preset effects. When you stop the rotation, that preset
will be loaded and become operational. The current pre-
set number is shown in the display [62]. The different
presets are shown in this table and marked on the panel
silkscreen. Further details of each preset are shown in
Appendix D on page 34.

The knob also offers a tap delay function for the pre-
sets 17 to 24. This works as follows:
1. Use the knob to select a preset from 17 to 24.
2. Press the knob in at least two times.
The DSP processor will calculate the time delay
between the last two pushes, and it will assign
this time interval to the echoes of the current
digital delay.
The minimum tap delay is 50 ms and the maxi-
mum is 500 ms.
• If your taps are faster than 50 ms, they will
be set to 50 ms.
• If taps are between 500 ms and 1 second,
they will be set to 500 ms.
• If taps are greater than 1 second apart,
they will be ignored. Try again a bit faster.
3. The LED will fl ash in time with the new tap
delay time.

64. INTERNAL FX MUTE

When engaged, the internal effects processor is mut-
ed, and its output will not appear on the main mix or
monitor 1 mix (or anywhere). The adjacent mute LED
will come on as a reminder that the effects are muted.
The footswitch connection [20] becomes disabled, and
you will not be able to use the footswitch to mute or
unmute the effects.
If this switch is not engaged, then the internal effects
are set free and can be added as required to the main
mix and monitor 1 mix, and can be muted or unmuted
with the footswitch.
Congratulations! You've just read about all the fea-
tures of your powered mixer. Time for a cold one.
