The Basics

There are a few basic concepts that you'll have to grasp to use
nothing else, please read this section.
The Algorithms
offers a wide range of reverb-type effects and comes loaded with 100 Preset effects.
These effects are based on twelve unique algorithms. An algorithm is the underlying signal
processing structure of the effect – the signal processing software that creates the effect and
determines the ways in which the effect can be controlled. Each algorithm has a unique set of
parameters which are varied by turning
setting these parameters in a unique way. Simply put, Presets are based on algorithms and
the algorithms are the "secret sauce."
The Presets
ships with 100 factory-created Presets. Whenever a Preset is loaded, the name of the
Algorithm on which the Preset is based is displayed momentarily. You can modify the sound
of the Preset by turning the Control Knobs (or using the HotSwitch, an Expression Pedal or
MIDI) and, if you wish, you can save the resulting effect as a new Preset. Instructions on
saving Presets will be found later in this User Guide. Refer to the Preset Guide for details on
the Factory installed Presets.
