Effects Edit Mode
Effects Edit Mode is used for setting up the Digital Signal Processing effects. Each
Effect Patch has 4 effect bus inputs, and an internal configuration of multiple effects
such as reverb, delay, and pitch-related effects (chorus, flange, etc.). You can
determine what kinds of effects are used on each bus (this is called a
"Configuration"), change each effect's parameters (such as reverb decay time or
chorus speed), set modulation routings (such as having the modulation wheel change
the decay time), and set the effects mix (how much reverb, delay and chorus on the
output of each effect bus).
Global Edit Mode
Use Global Edit Mode to set various parameters which effect the entire instrument,
such as overall master tuning, display contrast, MIDI controller settings, keyboard
sensitivity, and how the unit will respond to or generate messages in Mix Mode.
Store Mode
Store Mode is used for storing changes of Programs, Mixes and/or Effects into the
User Bank or onto a QuadraCard PCMCIA memory card accessory. It is also used for
transmitting the S4 Plus's parameters over MIDI for data storage purposes, copying
sounds or effects from one Program to another, and for transferring entire Banks to or
from a Sound Card.
Compare Mode
Once a Program has been edited in Program Edit Mode, or a Mix has been edited in
Mix Edit Mode, the word "EDITED" will appear in the display next to the Mix/Program
number. If [ COMPARE] is pressed, the word "COMPARE" will appear in the display,
and you will temporarily be hearing (and seeing) the original version of the
Mix/Program. If you are editing a Mix and press [COMPARE], the original unedited
MIX is temporarily recalled. Likewise, if you are editing a Program or its Effects Patch
and press [COMPARE], the original Program will be temporarily recalled. Pressing
[COMPARE] again switches back to the edited version, and the word "COMPARE"
disappears from the display.
