Programming your PC1

Basic Editing Concepts

Entering an Edit Mode
There are two buttons that take you into the PC1's various edit modes:
Edit
Effect
You can get to Effects edit mode, MIDI receive mode, or Global mode from any performance
mode; just press Effect, MIDI Receive, or Global.
To edit programs or setups, you must first select the performance mode corresponding to the
object you want to edit (select Program mode, for example, if you want to edit a Program). When
you've selected a performance mode, press Edit. When you press Edit, you go to the first menu
in the edit mode corresponding to the performance mode you were in when you pressed Edit.
You'll see one of the following displays:
Program mode
Setup mode
Finding a Parameter and Changing its Value
To navigate through the PC1's menus, use the Alpha Wheel or the cursor buttons (the Left and
Right arrow buttons under the LCD display) and the Enter button.
Notice the arrows (
menus of parameters by pressing the Right cursor button. The reason you don't see any left
arrows in these examples is that when you enter an edit mode, you're always at the top menu. As
soon as you move away from the top menu, you'll see a left arrow in the display as well.
1. Once you've entered an edit mode, use the Alpha Wheel or the cursor buttons to find
the menu you want.
2. Press Enter to enter the menu.
3. Use the cursor buttons to view the parameters in the menu. In most cases, there's just
one parameter visible at a time. In that case, when you see the parameter you want to
edit, turn the Alpha Wheel left or right to change the value. In some cases, you can see
more than one parameter at a time (for example, Wet/Dry parameters for FX-A, FX-B,
and A to B in Effect Editing parameter). When there's more than one parameter visible,
use the cursor buttons to move the cursor under the value you want to change. Then
turn the Alpha Wheel to change the value.

Naming and Storing

Storing (saving) is optional, of course. If you don't want to store any of your changes, press
Cancel one or more times to return to the mode you were in before you started editing.
