Digital Effects | Master Control 4.8
Press the Page Down button to move to the next page
of the FX menu. Pages 2 and 3 of the FX menu display
the rest of the parameters for FX A and FX B,
respectively. These parameters will change depending
on what type of effect you have chosen. Again, use
the Next and Prev buttons to navigate through the
screen and use the Value encoder to change the
selected parameter.
For example, if you would like to change the effect from
a Large Hall reverb to a Room Ambiance reverb, press
the Recall button to load the effect, and then change the various parameters to
taste. Press the Page Up button again to move to the full parameter view of FX B.
When you choose a delay algorithm, you will notice
two parameters: Time (ms) and Time X.
Time is the delay time, discussed in Section 8.6.2, which is the time
between the source sound and the echo. This can be adjusted
manually with the Value encoder, or you can use the Tap button to
enter a delay time in tempo with the music being played.
Time X is the value of the beat you are using as a reference for the tempo. The basic
unit of measure is a quarter note, so for example, if the beats you are tapping
represent quarter notes in the music, you would set Time X to 1.00. If they are eighth
notes, you would set Time X to 0.50; half notes would be 2.00, and so on. In this way,
you can precisely synchronize or syncopate the delay echoes to the music in real
time.
Power User Tip:
While you have to select the Time parameter in order to use the Tap
button, you only have to do this the first time you use the Tap button for that effect. Once
the Tap button has been used to control the Time parameter on either FX Bus, it will
always control the Time of that particular delay, no matter what page you are currently
viewing. To assign the Tap button to control another delay, simply navigate to that
delay’s Time parameter field and use the button to enter the desired Delay Time.
Pages 4 and 5 allow you to store your changes for FX A and FX B, respectively,
to the same location or to a new location, and to customize the name of
your creation. To jump to these pages, simply press the Store button while
you have a field in the desired effect selected. Use the Value Encoder to
change the library location to which you will store your new effects preset,
unless you wish to overwrite the currently selected preset location. Press
the Next button to navigate to the first letter of the preset name.
Turn the Value Encoder clockwise or counter-
clockwise to change the letter. The StudioLive allows
you to customize the name with uppercase and
lowercase letters and a selection of numerals and
punctuation marks. Press the Tap button to quickly
insert a space.
Once you are satisfied with your changes, press the Store button, which will
illuminate while the effects preset is written to the StudioLive’s internal memory.
Once the preset is saved, the Store button will return to its unlit status.
