Operations
Edit Mode
Edit mode is at the core of the ProLinear DSP’s features.
This is what allows you to adjust the EQ curve parameters
such as Frequency, Gain, and Q. After you have created the
EQ curve you want, these settings can then be saved to one
of the eight User Program locations.
The edited Program will be
retained when the speaker is
powered down, even if it has
not been stored to a User
Program location. When the
speaker is powered up, these
custom settings will be
restored. However, if you
select another Program, the
edited Program will be lost.
How it works
When you select a Program, a copy of that Program is
made into a temporary location called the “Edit buffer.”
This is where the edits actually take place. If you do not
save the edits you have made before selecting another
Program, the original Program will not be affected. Therefore,
you should be sure to save any edits you want to keep before
selecting another Program! See page 20 for a description of
how to use Save mode.
