Dual Mono Setups provide two Mix controls on Page Three: AMIX and BMIX.
These are independent mix controls for each machine.
Cascade Setups provide three Mix controls on Page Three: AMIX, BMIX and
OMIX.
AMIX varies the amount of “dry” input in Machine A’s wet output. This Mixture
of wet and dry (if any) is passed along to the input of Machine B.
BMIX adjusts the proportion of Machine A’s wet output to the “wet” output of
Machine B.
OMIX takes that mix result and mixes it with the “Dry” input signal.
The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) is a control generator which is designed to
modulate Effect or Setup parameters in the 300 when parameters are patched
to it. The LFO has a shape and a rate (speed) function, available on Page Four.
The shape can be SINEusoidal, TRIANGLE, SQUARE, or RANDOM. Rate is
adjustable from Off to 9.0Hz.
The action of the meters (FX-OUT for either Left or Right channel) is determined
on Page Five.
Note: If you choose Left Meter or Right Meter as Patch sources when making
MOD Edits, you are essentially linking the ballistics of the meter to the destination
parameter.
Pages Six and Seven allow you to make as many as two MOD patches in the
Setup domain.
On Page Eight you can name your Setup prior to storing it into a register. The
arrow (cursor) keys allow you to select a letter to change; the softknob actually
changes the character. The maximum length of a name is 12 characters.
When you have made all the necessary changes to a setup and want to save it
in a register, press STORE. The display will show:
Storing the Setup
Src: SET DM: Rev/Rev
Dst: R # _ _ Available
The top line of the display shows the source (Src) — the currently selected setup
name. The bottom line shows the destination (Dst) — the register number into
which the the setup will be copied. Use the Soft knob to select the register
number you want, then press STORE again. The display will return to the last
Setup Edit page.
Note: The 300 has a memory protection feature which enables or disables
copying into the registers. When Copy Tools are disabled, all storing
functions are inhibited. The Control mode Copy Tools page allows this
feature to beenabled or disabled. For more details, see the section
describing Control mode at the end of this chapter.
