Making settings
Whatever type of effect has been selected for use by
the
EFFECT 1
or
EFFECT 2
processor, the principles
of editing are the same (the exact parameters which
can be edited are different, of course). The details of
these parameters are described in “Parameter details”
on page 87.
1
If the
EFFECT
screen is not shown (the
example here shows a multi-effect processor),
press the appropriate
EFFECT
key to bring up
this screen (remember that
EFFECT 2
cannot
be used as a multi-effect processor, so this
screen can never appear if you press
EFFECT
2
).
2
With the multi-effect processor setting, use the
Ó
and
Á
keys to change between tabs (this
allows the different parts of the multi-effect
processor to be edited).
3
Use the
§
and
¶
keys to move the cursor to
the parameter to be changed.
4
Use the dial to change the values of the selected
parameter. The changes are instantly audible.
Using the user libraries
When you have made the effect settings that you
want, they can be stored in a library for further use.
Up to 128 settings can be stored for the single stereo
effect processors, 128 for the multi-effect processors,
and 128 shared between the channel and stereo
dynamics processors.
NOTE
It is not possible to use the library space for one type of
effect to store another type of effect.
The single stereo effect library spaces may be used by
both EFFECT 1 and EFFECT 2, when they are used as
single stereo effect processors.
Storing an effect in the library
1
From the effect parameter edit screen, press
the
YES
or
NO
key.
2
Use the
Á
key to make the
SAVE
tab active.
3
Use the dial to scroll down to the user library
memory where you will store the settings.
4
At this point you can use the
SHIFT
+
MENU
(
TITLE
) key to give the library setting a title
that you can remember in the future. See
“Entering and editing titles” on page 26 for
details.
5
Press
ENTER
to store the settings. The display
returns to the parameter editing screen.
TIP
These settings are automatically stored on the internal disk
when you power off the 788 (see “Shutting down the 788”
on page 19).
Recalling a user setting from the library
1
From the effect parameter edit screen, press
the
YES
or
NO
key.
2
Use the
Ó
and
Á
keys to make the
USER
tab active.
3
Use the dial to scroll down to the user library
memory from where you will load the settings.
4
Press
ENTER
to load the settings. The display
returns to the parameter editing screen.
