Quasimidi Technox Owner's Manual page 7

2.b.) BASIC OPERATIONS
The "POWER" switch [1] is used to (guess!) turn your TECHNOX on. So, usually, you'll use it once-
right in the beginning of your musical work. When using it for the second time, you'll obviously will hear
- nothing, because your TECHNOX is switched off.
The "PARAMETER/SOUNDGROUP" Alpha-dial [3] has two functions. When in sequencer mode (main
page), the soundgroups for the different parts may be selected with this dial; in the edit-mode you'll
change the different sound-parameters and menus.
The "VALUE/SOUND" Alpha-dial [4] is used for changing the single-sounds in the sequencer-mode, and
during sound-editing it is used for altering the values of the selected sound parameters.
You'll use the "EDIT/OK" key [8] to select the edit-mode, to change the edit level, and for the confirmation
of some questions you will be asked by the TECHNOX from time to time.
The "EXIT" [9] key is used to exit a selected menu in the edit-mode.
The "PART/BANK" keys [5] are used to select the different parts within the "Multi-Sequencer-Mode"
and for the selection of different performance banks in Performance-mode.
Now you'll get an overview over the different edit-levels of your TECHNOX. After pressing the "EDIT/OK"
key once, the different edit menus can be selected with the "PARAMETER/SOUNDGROUP" Alpha-dial.
The selection of the edit level has to be confirmed by pressing the "EDITOK" key once. The following
table gives you in the first row a reference to the page of this manual where the corresponding edit level
will be explained in detail. The TECHNOX offers you the following edit-menus:

pan-position and the FX1 and FX2 sends.
