Program And Register Banks - Lexicon PCM 90 - REV 1 User Manual

The PCM 90 has 250 factory-designed programs, organized into five Program
Banks of 50 each, and 100 memory locations, called registers, for storing your
customized effects. Two Register Banks are available in the PCM 90 itself.
Additional Register Banks can be stored on PCMCIA cards.
All PCM 90 programs have one or more parameters
patched to the ADJUST knob.
In Program Banks or Register Banks mode, turn
ADJUST to change the sound of the currently
running effect. While ADJUST is turned, the patch
name and value are displayed. Custom Controls
allow you to create additional group parameter
controls.
The procedure for loading effects is the same, whether you are choosing from
banks of factory presets, or from your own banks of registers. When first turned
on, the PCM 90 will load whatever effect was running when it was last turned off.
When shipped from the factory, the first effect in the first Program Bank (P0 0.0
Deep Blue) is loaded. The Bank ID (P0, P1, P2, P3, P4 ), matrix location,
program name, and bank and row labels are all displayed.
