ReValver Manual 9

Handling of a module

Techniques for creating
programs

ReValver was designed to be used in ways similar to real
life hardware. The modules have the same look and feel
as ordinary 19” rack modules. By constructing a chain of
modules a unique sound can created.

Handling of a module

When a module has been placed in the chain there are
several ways of entering parameters into it. Most modules

have a graphics display showing the values of the knobs.

By clicking on an empty area of a module the main menu
is displayed:

* Move module (change to location in the chain)
* Remove module (removes the module from the chain)
* Replace module (replaces the module with another)
* Bypass module (temporarily turn the module off)
* Load preset (loads a parameters for the module from disk)
* Save preset (saves the modules parameters to disk)

1. By simply clicking on a knob, its content is shown in the

display. It will be lit for a couple of seconds, or until you
click another knob.
