Gee, they don't
sound
like
eects!
There are four more "effects"
at the bottom of the scrolling
menu.
They are test tones that are
designed to be used with the
SoundLink Spectrum Analyzer.
● 1Khz Sine Wave
● Slow Sweep (through the whole
frequency spectrum)
● Sweep Fast (through the whole
frequency spectrum)
● White or Pink Noise
How they are best used is be-
yond the scope of this manual.
To blatantly borrow from
Wikipedia," A spectrum ana-
lyzer measures the magnitude of
an input signal versus frequency
within the full frequency range of
the instrument. By analyzing the
spectra of electrical signals, domi-
nant frequency, power, distortion,
harmonics, bandwidth, and other
spectral components of a signal can
be observed."

The screen will query you as
to whether you want to save the
setting. Hit Save to finish.
Note that you can also
save a DFX setting in the
GLOBAL menu's "Save
Scene" and "Memorize
Mode" (page 54.)
Recalling a DFX preset.
Here's how to recall DFX settings
that you saved.
In the DFX section, press
the
DFX SELECT button.
A list of thirty user spaces, num-
bered U to U, will appear.
Scroll through them with
the arrow buttons or en-
coder knob and pick an
existing preset.
Press straight down on the
encoder knob or the button
under "Select" to choose a
preset.
The recalled Digital Effects
settings are applied.
To return to the previous
screen without recalling
DFX settings, press the
EXIT button or the func-
tion button indicated as
"Exit."
