Playback Presets
Twelve Playback presets let you recall stored ef-
fects. Selecting a preset recalls the last edited set 
of parameters for the preset. Effect presets let 
you invoke different effects in rapid succession, 
to create a compelling musical performance. 
Effect User Knobs (FX1 and FX2)
The Effect module provides two assignable User 
Knob controls (FX1 and FX2) that provide direct 
control over any of the Effect modules Edit 
mode settings. The current control assignment 
is displayed below each User Knob.
Effect Edit Mode
In Edit mode, the Effect module provides easy 
access to the Gain, Noise, Filter, and Delay ef-
fects and their parameters. 
Enabling an Effect
Enabling an effect processes the sound (A/B 
Sounds) coming from the Playback module. Dis-
abling an effect essentially bypasses the effect.
To enable or disable the Gain, Noise, Filter, or 
Delay effect:
 Click the Effect Enable button above the Ef-
fect Select button. The button is illuminated 
when the effect is enabled.
Selecting an Effect for Editing
To view the Gain, Noise, Filter, or Delay effect 
parameters:
 Click the Effect Select button (Gain, Noise, Fil-
ter, or Delay). The selected effect’s button will il-
luminate, and the effect’s parameters will be 
available for editing.
Gain Effect
Gain is used to add Volume, Distortion, or Satu-
ration to the sound (A/B Sounds) coming from 
the Playback module. Similar to the Playback 
section, the Range controls set Beginning and 
End values. Range settings can also be modu-
lated by an LFO to create dynamic gain effects.
BED and END Range (–96 to 24 dB) Use the BEG 
and END parameters to set the amount of Gain 
effect. The specified Range settings control the 
amount of modulation by LFO1 and LFO2.
