DYNAMICS1/2 window (1ch)

All dynamics parameters can be viewed and edited by channel. This is convenient when you

want to make detailed dynamics settings for a specific channel.

1 LIBRARY button

Press this button to open the DYNAMICS Library window.

2 DEFAULT button

Press this button to reset all dynamics parameters to the initial values.

3 COPY button

All dynamics parameter settings will be copied in buffer memory.

4 PAST E butto n

Press this button to apply the settings in buffer memory to the current dynamics. If no

valid data has been copied in the buffer memory, nothing will happen.

5 COMPARE button

Press this button to swap between the current dynamics settings and the data stored in

buffer memory. If no valid data has been copied in the buffer memory, nothing will

happen.

NOTE

For details on how to use buttons 1–5, refer to “Using the tool buttons” in the separate Owner’s

Manual.
