PCM 90 User Guide
All of the controls available in a mode are arranged in a matrix of up to 10 columns
(numbered 0-9) and 10 rows (each numbered .0-.9). This arrangment allows any
one of as many as 100 parameters to be selected simply by using the SELECT
knob and the Up and Down buttons to select a position in the matrix.

The SELECT knob moves you
horizontally across the matrix.
In the Program and Register Banks, the ADJUST knob acts
as a soft knob for adjustment of one or more patched effect
parameters. In the other modes, ADJUST scrolls through the
range of available settings for the control you have selected.
The Up and Down
buttons move you

the rows of the
matrix.

Go or Pro
The PCM 90 offers a choice between two levels of Edit mode parameter access.
We call these Go mode and Pro mode.
Go mode makes use of an extra row in the edit mode matrix called the Soft Row,
where you can assign as many as 10 effect parameters or Custom Controls for
easy access. Selecting Go mode (Control mode 1.0) limits the action of the Edit
button to displaying only the Soft Row parameters assigned to the current effect.
Each preset has a set of Soft Row assignments which we've selected for you (as
well as an assignment for the ADJUST knob and Custom Controls). When
shipped, the PCM 90 will power up in Go mode with the first preset (P0 0.0)
loaded. Press Edit to display the Soft Row of parameters. Press Up or Down
to access a Pro mode selection display.
Pro mode gives you access to the full parameter matrix, including the Soft Row.
Use this mode when you want to do in-depth effects editing or patching, or when
you want to customize Soft Row assignments.
Go mode and Pro mode selection is made in Control mode at matrix location 1.0.
