MEMORY EDIT MODE

The Memory Edit mode is similar to the Manual mode in
that all effect parameters can be edited and the
resulting program stored to memory. However, the
Memory Edit mode uses an existing effect program's
parameters as the basic "material" for editing; the new
program you create by editing in the Memory Edit mode
can be saved to the currently selected program
number.
To enter the Memory Edit mode, first select the effect
program you wish to edit from the Memory mode, then
press [EDIT/COMPARE]. (The orange EDIT/COMPARE
LED lights.)
For information on editing effect parameters and the
Utility settings (which can also be done from the
Memory Edit mode), refer to the relevant sections in
"MANUAL MODE" above. For information on saving an
effect program from the Memory Edit mode, see the
section "Saving the Memory Edit Mode Settings to an
Effect Program" below.
Once you've made edits to a program, you can
compare the sound (and values) of the new pro-
gram with that of the original one. To do this,
press
above the button and the program number in the
display both flash, indicating that the original
program settings are active.)

In the compare condition, you can also check the
main parameter values of the original program simply
by turning the desired parameter knob. To check its
sub parameters, follow the same steps as given in
"Editing the Sub Parameters" in "MANUAL MODE"
above. (The parameter values cannot be changed
here, however; an "EXIT COMPARE" message
appears if you press the

EFFECT SECTION
PERIODICALLY CHECK YOUR EDITS—While you edit
an effect program, you should regularly and often
compare the sound with the original. In this way,

if you find that you like the original value of a
parameter better than the value you most re-
cently set, you can recall the original program
settings (see page 54). Remember, though, that
this permanently erases whatever edits you have
made.
Note
: No other effect operation (except for checking
parameter values and settings) can be per-
formed while Compare is on. To exit the Com-
pare function, press [EDIT/COMPARE]. (The
EDIT/COMPARE LED will stop flashing.)
Be careful not to inadvertently press [MANUAL]
or [MEMORY] at any time in the Edit or Compare
conditions. Important data could be irretrievably

lost. (See the sections on Saving and Recalling
programs below for more information.)
After making the desired effect settings in the
