What is an effect loop?
This is a connection in which an effect device is connected via send and
return jacks. The ES-8 provides eight effect loops, 1–8.
What is memory mode?
In this mode, you can select “patches,” where each patch is a combination of
effect loops and various settings.
You can select from 800 patches by using the switches to specify the bank
and number.
What is manual mode?
In this mode you can turn the effect loops (1–8) on/off individually.

In manual mode, these switches turn each effect loop (1–8) on/off individually.
When an effect loop is on, its number indicator is lit red.

You can also assign a different function to each switch (p. 10). MEMO

* The explanations in this
manual include illustrations
that depict what should
typically be shown by the
display. Note, however, that
your unit may incorporate
a newer, enhanced version
of the system (e.g., includes
newer sounds), so what you
actually see in the display
may not always match what
appears in the manual.
