Detailed Manual; Editing The Configuration Parameters - Panda-Audio Future Impact v3 User Manual

Detailed Manual

The first section of this part of the manual will explain the complete list of configuration
parameters located in the boot menu. The second section, which forms the bulk of the
manual, will show you everything you need to know about the Editor. This begins by showing
you how to download and install the software, connect the FI to your computer and update
the pedal's firmware. It then goes on to explain how to load, save, transfer and rearrange
programs. The final part takes you through all of the controls and functions of the Editor in
detail.

Editing the Configuration Parameters

As already mentioned, the Future Impact v3 has 99 onboard programs whose many
parameters can be fully edited with the Editor software. As you may recall from the ​
the Sounds​ section of the Quick-Start manual, each program has a smaller subset of those
parameters, which can be coarsely edited directly on the FI itself using the EDIT dial. In
addition, there are the two Global Parameters, NOTE OFF LEVEL and NOTE ON LEVEL,
which can likewise be edited with the EDIT dial.
The FI also has 7 Configuration Parameters that are common for all Programs; these can be
edited on the FI via a boot menu. Two of these parameters (Reset All and Instrument Mode)
were already discussed in the Quick-Start Guide, but for the sake of completeness, they are
repeated here in the complete list.
To enter the boot menu, press and hold the PROGRAM (left) footswitch while powering on
the pedal. Turn the PARAMETER dial to "Note Off Level" to see the name of a parameter
and turn it clockwise to any other position to see that parameter's value. The value is
adjusted using the EDIT dial. Step through the parameters by pressing the left footswitch
again. When editing is complete, turn the FI off and on again.
The parameters of the boot menu are given below:
● RESET ALL ("rS")
Value: 0, 1. (Default on reset is 0.)
Change to 1 to reset all sound para​ m eters to default (5) upon power-on. The default
program loaded at power-on will be reset to 1.
● DIRECT/LEGACY PROGRAM-SELECTION MODE ("PrG")
Value: 0 (DIRECT), 1 (LEGACY). (Default on reset is 0.)
DIRECT Mode is the default setting for selecting a sound. Sounds can be selected
with the PROGRAM footswitch. A single press will move up by one program, a
double press will move down by one. If you press and hold this footswitch, the
number will scroll up, first slowly, then faster. If you hold this footswitch after a double
