Editing the Effect Settings
— Edit Mode
The ME-8 allows you to edit the settings for effects, then store
the edited data as a Patch.
How fo Edit a Patch
The ME-8 allows you to store up to 50 different effects programs
in the User Patch locations. To edit an effects program, simply
change the values for the various settings offered. Each item
which can be varied is called a "parameter," and each effects
program is called a Patch.
* For further details on the effects and parameters, see "How Each Effect
Works" on page 20.
A Patch can be edited as follows:
1° Select a Patch in the Play Mode.
When there is an existing Patch that is similar to the effect
you wish to produce, select that Patch. If there isn't, select
a User Patch where you want to write the new Patch.
2 Press [EDIT/ESC].
The EDIT/ESC indicator will light, showing that you are now
in the Edit mode. The display shows the value of the Master
Level.
3 Turn on or off each effect.
Using the pedals or buttons, turn on or off individual effects.
You an tell whether an effect is on or off by looking at the
indicators above the pedals or buttons, and at the Effect
indicators on the panel.

Select the effect you wish to modify using PARAMETER

You can always tell which parameter is being edited, since
an Effect indicator will be flashing (it indicates the column
the parameter is in) and a Parameter indicator will light
(shows the row the parameter is on). The value supplied for
the setting is shown in the display.

* If you have selected a parameter for an effect that is turned off, the
value will flash on and off in the display.
5 Change the value for the parameter.
Change the value using VALUE [0] [©]. To change a value
more rapidly, press [e] ([]) while holding [O] ({e3]) down.
Some effects may have parameters that cannot be edited. If
so, the value will be shown as "~~ -" in the display.
By repeating steps 3-5, set the Patch to your liking.
* An edited Patch will be automatically erased if the ME-8 is switched
off. If you wish to retain the edited data, write it into a Patch by
following "Storing Your Effects Settings — Write Procedure" on page
10.
