Operating Your Amplifier: Directly Editing Audio Parameters
Overview
Editing all audio parameters is available from the front panel of your amplifier using a
combination of the select BANK keys, reassignable EDIT keys, and the BACK/NEXT/ENTER
navigation controls.
First, make sure the correct bank of channels is selected — either inputs A-D, amplifier
outputs 1-4 or auxiliary outputs 5-8 by pressing the corresponding BANK key.
Next, press the EDIT key that corresponds to the channel to be adjusted. The EDIT key will
illuminate, and the gain will always be displayed as the first parameter.
To choose another parameter, use BACK and NEXT to scroll through the available choices.
If there are multiple parameters grouped on a single screen (such as parametric EQ
frequency, ‘Q’ and gain) move between these using the ENTER key.

Finally, use the rotary encoder to adjust the value of the parameter.
You can swap bank at any time by pressing a BANK key, and to quickly access the same
parameter on another channel (within a bank) double press on the required channel’s EDIT
key. If the same parameter doesn’t exist in a bank (such as no limiters on the input bank), the
gain screen will be shown.
A third press on the same EDIT key will exit editing and return to the current bank’s default
screen.
Hint: You can quickly check the same setting of any parameter on a bank of channels by
double pressing each EDIT key in turn — so to check each output’s polarity setting, just press
EDIT, press NEXT until “Polarity” is displayed, then press the next channel’s EDIT twice, and
so on.
