Edit Buffer
As soon as you change a parameter's value, you will notice that the Edit LED begins flashing.
This means that the you are now listening to a modified version of the algorithm in the Edit
Buffer. The Edit Buffer is a section of RAM where edits are temporarily stored.
By pressing the Edit button you can toggle between the original setting (LED solidly lit) and the
newly edited version (LED flashing) of that algorithm. What is visible on the display is the
parameter settings that you hear.

Here are a few quick tips to find your way around the DP / 4.
Tip:
While holding down either the Left or Right Arrow button, press
Cancel- Undo. This is a great way to get to the Algorithm Select parameter in Edit
mode without having to scroll through lots of parameters.
Tip:
While holding down either the Left or Right Arrow button, press the other
arrow button. This is useful when there are several different parameters on the screen
at one time, and you want get to the next screen without having to cursor through each
individual parameter.
Tip:
While holding down either the Left or Right Arrow button, tum the Data
Entry Knob. This lets you move much more quickly through a long list of parameters
that by repeatedly pressing the arrow buttons.
Tip: Press the Cancel-Undo button. This will return the last parameter you edited
to its original value, but only as long as you still have that parameter selected.
If have you
scrolled to another parameter, this undo function will no longer work.
Tip: If
you accidentally change the algorithm in a unit, you will lose all of the
parameter settings for the old algorithm unless you press Cancel- Undo to recall the
original algorithm and its parameters.
You must press Undo before scrolling to another
parameter or leaving Edit mode.
