LED will flash rapidly during the store operation and then stay illuminated for 1
second to show the operation is complete.

the parameter matches the stored setting.
4. Decay / Feedback/Depth Knob - Controls Decay of the reverbs or the second

which flashes if the FX processor is muted. There is a handy aide memoir of the
programs printed on the front panel.
7. Clip LED – This LED illuminates when either the incoming audio or the processed
audio (within the effect processor) overloads, and causes distortion of the signal.
Footswitch Input (see diagram on page 20) - Using a single-pole, momentary
footswitch inserted into the FOOTSWITCH input the effects processor can be muted/
un-muted.
8. PFL - This switch routes a post effects processor, pre-fade (EFFECTS FADER) sig-
nal to the monitor system.
9. MUTE - This switch mutes the output of the FX processor. It doesn’t mute the PFL
signal or the FX TO AUX 1 pre-fade signal.
10. FX TO AUX 1 - This pot routes a pre-fade and a post-fade signal to the Aux 1-pre and Aux 1-post busses
respectively.
11. EFFECTS FADER - This fader controls the level of the signal, from the FX processor, routed to the main mix
busses.
FX BUS OUT (see diagram on page 20) - This output carries the signal from the FX bus. It could be used as
a second Aux Output if desired, if the FX Processor is not needed at the time.
