Lexicon PCM 90 - REV 1 User Manual page 37

Each bank and row in the Program and Register Banks has a descriptive name
to help you locate different types of effects. For instance, if you want to process
dialog to sound as though it's in a shower stall, the Rooms bank is a good place
to start. Bank and row labels appear on the top line of the display in Program and
Register modes.
Banks and rows that you create yourself can be renamed at Control 2.4.
To make finding the effects you want even easier, the PCM 90 has an effect
sorting function called KeyWord which lets you display only a selected type of
effect. When the KeyWord function is activated (at Control 1.8), pressing
Program Banks or Register Banks one push beyond the available banks will
access a list of effects sorted by one of the KeyWords shown in the sidebar.
SELECT will scroll you through the effects in that category. When shipped, the
PCM 90 has the KeyWord function turned on, with A to Z selected. This displays
all of the effects in alphabetical order. Each preset has at least one KeyWord
assignment.
The KeyWord categories cover a wide variety of effect types. To select a
different KeyWord for sorting, go to Control 1.8. (If you are in the KeyWord
section of the Program Banks or Register Banks mode, pressing Control will
jump you directly to this location.) Turn ADJUST to select any KeyWord from the
list. Now, when you return to Program Banks or Register Banks mode, the
display of programs will be limited to those which have been tagged with that
particular KeyWord.
KeyWords are assigned to effects in Edit mode. As many as four KeyWords can
be assigned to a single effect to allow sorting into more than one group. An effect
might, for example, be assigned the KeyWords: Acoustic, Ballad, Guitar and
Small. The effect would then be displayed when any of these KeyWords was
selected.
To turn the KeyWord function off, go to Control 1.8 System *KeyWord. Press
Load/ and use ADJUST to select On or Off.
