gram to program and might be more suited to a guitarist's needs than those described here.

The output of each effects block can be attenuated to achieve just the right
blend of effects. Press

Bypassing Effects Blocks

You can bypass an effects block by toggling

<FXA: OFF>
status of an effects block is saved and loaded with the program.
To avoid confusion, if either FXA or FXB has been explicitly bypassed by these controls, the red
light will flash. Of course, if the system as a whole is bypassed, you'll not be able to see it .....
You load different algorithms into an effects block of the currently loaded program by selecting a program
that already contains the algorithm you want. Think of it as stealing the algorithm and its parameter values.
Since programs 100 to 199 represent the raw algorithms themselves, loading a "raw algorithm" is just a spe-
cial case of the more general procedure. See the separate "Eclipse Algorithms" document for more informa-
tion about the Eclipse's algorithms.

KEYS
In most cases, any two algorithms can be selected and loaded. However, a
few algorithms are sufficiently large that they can only be paired with a
small one. In such cases you may see a display like the one on the left. This tells you that a large algorithm is
currently loaded in effects block A (
block from the displayed program. To get around this, either choose a new algorithm for block A, or look
for a smaller one to fit into block B.
