Terms Used In The Manual - Zoom 9000 Operation Manual

Terms Used in the Manual

This manual has been written using easy terms so that it can be understood with ease by
first time users. However, the 9000 has several, special functions which are not available
with a conventional single compact fader. This section, therefore, explains some of the
terms used throughout the manual to describe the special functions of the 9000.
Effect Module
The 9000 consists of basic Effect groups, which are listed below. Each group is referred
to as an "Effect Module." The following are the types of Effect Modules:
·
COMP+DIST (Compressor+distortion Effect Module group)
·
EQ (Equalizer Effect Module group)
·
MOD (Modulation Effect Module group such as Chorus and Flanger)
·
DLY (Delay Effect Module group)
·
REV (Reverb Effect Module group)
Effect Type
Each Effect Module consists of several types of affects (however, only one type of delay
effect is available) which are called Effect Types in this manual. Each Effect Module
can use one Effect Type at a time. See the table on page 19 for the Effect Types in each
Effect Module.
Patch
The 9000 allows you to use a maximum of five Effect Modules simultaneously. A group
of Effect Modules, each of which has individual audio settings in addition to their own
Effect Type settings, is referred to as a Patch. The 9000 can store up to 20 Patches in the
internal memory.
