™
The 480 DriveRack™ has been carefully designed and engineered to ensure that all aspects of
operation are intuitive and logical. Simply stated, the 480 DriveRack™ operating system was
designed with user’s best interest in mind. Editing the 480 DriveRack™ can be done by utiliz-
ing key functions and tools. This section will provide you with detailed information on all of
the tools used to optimize the editing performance of your DriveRack™. This intuitive front
panel interface can also be used to control other units (481 and 482) which are used within a
a DriveRack™ network system.
Navigational aspects of the 480 DriveRack™ are clear, concise and more important: flexible.

forming programming edits.

of accessing any effect module. 2 .

page buttons - Successive presses
of the

or

page buttons will move the user from one page to the next in
an effect block. 3 .
PARAMETER KNOBS
- In addition to editing parameter values with the
PARAMETER
knobs, the
PARAMETER
2 & 3 knobs (when used in program mode) will move
the cursor throughout the display horizontally and vertically. For more information on this
unique feature, please see section 2.4.
The following sections will provide you with detailed information for accurate navigation of the
FX button section of the 480 DriveRack™. Each diagram indicates the functionality of each FX
