Using Preview mode

Preview mode lets you view or edit the settings of a scene stored in memory without affecting
the signal processing of the current scene. When you recall a scene in this mode, the settings
of the newly recalled scene will appear on the panel of the QL series console, but the signal
processing of the current scene will remain as it was prior to the recall. Even if you modify the
settings and save them as a new scene or by overwriting, the signal processing of the current
scene will remain as it was prior to the recall. During an actual performance, it can be
convenient to use this to check the content of the scene you intend to recall next, or to make
minor changes to a scene and then store it.
STEP
1. Press the PREVIEW button in the SCENE LIST window.
2. Use the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob to operate the SCENE SELECT knobs in the SCENE
LIST window, and select the scene number that you want to recall.
3. Press the RECALL SCENE button in the SCENE LIST window. To execute the Recall
operation, press the OK button.
4. If desired, use the panel controls to edit the settings.
5. If you want to store the changes you made in step 4, select the scene number in
which you want to store the scene, and press the SCENE MEMORY [STORE] key in
the SCENE LIST window.
6. When you have finished viewing or editing the settings of the scene, press the
PREVIEW button in the SCENE LIST window.
