Owner’s Manual
Using the I zone to control an internal effect/GEQ
As the internal effects and GEQs of the PRO6 are primarily GUI-only features, control
surface support is provided by the I zone, which lets you operate their parameters
using physical controls.
With an internal rack unit selected at the master bay GUI, a set of its parameter
controls will be automatically assigned to the I zone. Each individual set of I zone
controls will have its own single control assignment. To encompass all of a rack unit’s
parameter controls they are bundled into sets — known as pages for effects and groups
for GEQs — which are navigated using the I zone’s arrow buttons.
About the assignable controls panel on the GUI
The assignable controls panel is displayed on at the bottom of the effect/GEQ window
(output bay GUI only). It gives a pictorial representation of the I zone and displays
additional information, such as button and control knob assignments, current ‘page’
number etc. This panel also provides an alternative method of operating the I zone
controls.
The following diagram explains the elements of the assignable controls panel. It
uses the one for the effects as a example, but this also applies to the GEQs.
Item Description

I zone, in the format: [page number]/[total number of pages]. For
