Working with the Config File
Fine-Tuning via USB
On the right side of the Prism II, you can find a microUSB port which lets you connect the pedal to your computer. To
do that, you need a microUSB cable (purchased separately). The USB port on your computer should be USB 2.0 or
higher.
NB! Before performing any actions with the PRISM 2 drive, make sure the cable is fully functional and there are no
interruptions in the connection.
Connect the cables in the following order:
●
Connect the power supply to the Prism II.
●
Connect the Prism II to your computer with a microUSB cable.
●
If the connection is successful, a PRISM 2 drive will appear on your computer. This means the pedal is ready for
further operations.
●
Before disconnecting the microUSB cable from the pedal/computer, make sure to safely eject the drive first.
●
Do not disconnect the microUSB cable until all operations with the PRISM 2 drive have been finished!
Introduction
The device’s flash drive has an AFXSETUP folder which contains the PRISM2.SET file. The file can be viewed and
edited in any text editor: simply right-click on the file and select an editor to open it with (you can also configure your
system to open *.SET files with your text editor of choice).
The PRISM2.SET file is a set of configurations which the pedal accepts to edit the sound processing programs. We
recommend editing the config file to users with at least a basic programming background.
While editing the PRISM2.SET file can go wrong (by entering improper values or erasing vital data, for instance), no
harm will be done to the pedal itself. Simply delete the “bad” file, eject the Prism 2 drive, unplug the power supply
from the pedal, then plug it back in. This will make the Prism II generate the default config file again.
If you’re still reading this, you are probably ready to enter the magic world of fine-tuning sound processing programs.
Give it a try: the config file has a number of useful features which cannot be accessed via the pedal’s physical
controls.

using rhythmically connected ones:
