To enter Tweak Mode, press the M20d hardware TWEAK button on the front panel.
Tweak Mode offers 2 levels of adjusting channel parameters: Quick Tweak and DeepTweak.
Quick Tweak Overview
Quick Tweak is a fast, intuitive editing environment featuring a ‘smart’ multi-parameter
XY Pad. The XY controller enables you to dial in processing such as EQ, dynamics and
modulation with ease. Drag a finger toward common sound descriptors like “bright” or
“dark” and multiple parameters adjust simultaneously to achieve the desired sound.
The individual processors available for each channel in Quick Tweak mode are selectable
as tabs in the left area of the touchscreen. For example, if a vocal channel is loaded, tabs
for Punch, DeEsser and Tone are available, along with a simplified version of Global FX.
Tap one of the processor tabs and its XY Controller UI will be displayed. Then simply drag
your finger to the desired location on the touchscreen to tweak your sound. There are a
total of 8 XY processor presets available, depending on which DSP channel type is seleted.

Deep Tweak Overview
Deep Tweak enables you to access individual processor parameters to edit your channels
in finer detail. Each of the parameters displayed on the touchscreen for the currently
selected effect is matched to an M20d hardware encoder. The encoders are color-coded to
easily see which effect parameter each encoder will adjust.
The effect tabs for the currently selected channel are located in a row on the left side of
the touchscreen. Scroll up or down to see them all. Select an effect tab by tapping it and
its UI will be displayed on the touchsceen. The M20d hardware encoders will light up
accordingly, matching their associated parameters for fine adjustment.
In addition to fine-tuning your channel processing, Deep Tweak lets you tweak your Global
FX and Monitors. A dedicated Tweak button is available for each, providing parameter
control of the currently loaded Global FX, plus HiPass Filter, EQ 6 and Limiter for
Monitors, plus L6 LINK 31-Band EQ when a StageSource™ series speaker is connected.
