In the Effects screen, click on a non-control area of the effect you want.
Working with the effects
There are a number of ways of handling the effects, such as setting up, configuration
and operation, all of which involve the use of the GUI. However, most of these methods
can also be carried out using the I zone; see Chapter 19 "Assignable Controls (I Zone)"
on page 187.
>> To open the Effects screen
Do one of the following:
• At the GUI, choose home
• In the navigation zone, press the effects/graphics access button.
>> To operate an effect control
The method for controlling the effect controls is the same as for any control on a GUI
screen. For details, see "About GUI operation" on page 21.
>> To configure an effect
Similarly to the input channels, output channels, groups etc., you can change the name
of an effect and the background colour of its text field, as it appears on the GUI (see
"Configuring VCA/POP groups" on page 49).
>> To change an effect type
For details, see "To choose an effect" on page 54.
>> To route an effect
Effects are patched via the Patching screen. For details, see Chapter 7 "Patching" on
page 35.

Effect programs

Some types of effect have associated factory presets and user-configurable programs,
which you can load within the effect (these are also stored in a show file). You can also
save all of the controls from one or more effects in a user preset, which will then
contain information about their settings, including the loaded factory preset or
user-configurable program.
For details of each effect type, refer to its section in this chapter. For information on
presets, see Chapter 24 "User Libraries (Presets)" on page 235.
