Programming the MX-8 / The parameter menu
Functions and settings in the parameter domain should be changed by
qualified personnel only. The only exception is the programming of a new
preset as described in section 4.1.
The digital control boasts the great advantage of the programmability of
various functions. In this parameter menu, not only the presets are
programmed, but among others, the equalizers and the parameters for
feedback elimination are set. In fact, the entire programming of the MX-8 is
done here with menu-driven user guidance and merely two knobs. No PC or
Laptop are required.
•
In oder to enter the parameter menu (and therefore the programming
mode), first turn the unit off.
•
Then, turn it back on again while pushing both knobs (volume and preset)
until the parameter menu with its four items preset, parameters, config,
and service appear.
•
By turning the preset knob, you can change from one menu item to the
next which is indicated by a small triangle.
•
By pushing the preset knob, you chose the respective item from the
menu.
General comments on programming the MX-8:

Turning the preset knob one click to the right will always bring you to the
next item of a menu, i. e. to the next parameter to be programmed. This
knob is therefore also marked „parameter“. For simplicity, we will
continue to name this knob the preset knob.
•
Changing a value or character is always done by turning the volume
knob. This knob is therefore also marked „value“. However, here too for
simplicity, we will stay with the name of volume knob.
•
These knobs are so-called dynamic rotary encoders, meaning that when
slowly turning one of them, the value will change in small increments
whereas turning a knob by the same amount more quickly will change
the value superproportionally faster. This enables a fast but precise
setting of the desired values.
•
By pushing the volume knob, you will go up one level in the menu
hierarchy. Whenever you have changed any parameter, you will be
asked whether you would like to „Save changes?“. Pushing the volume
button indicates „yes“ and your changes will be saved (
