In the Program and Register Banks, ADJUST is a Soft Knob. Each of the factory-
designed programs has one or more parameters patched to this knob, providing
a quick way to make useful changes to the effect. For example, in P0 0.0 Prime
Blue
, ADJUST varies the mix of Chorus, Echo and Reverb effects.

The

symbol in the upper left corner of the display indicates that the currently

running effect has an ADJUST knob patch. (When you display another program
or register, this indicator continues to be displayed.) Turning ADJUST will cause
the display to change to show the patch name and the current value, as well as
the Bank, matrix location and name of the currently running effect. Continue
turning ADJUST to alter the patched parameter's value. You can create your
own ADJUST knob parameter assignments for your registers. (See Editing, later
in this chapter.)

Note that scrolling through the effects in the Program or Register banks will not

. (The

Load /

LED will light to indicate that the load function is available.) To find out

at any time what the currently running effect is, press and hold Program Banks
or Register Banks. An Info message will be displayed providing the name bank
and matrix location of the currently running effect.

To select an effect stored in a register, press Register Banks. If you have
registers stored on a memory card, and have the card inserted, pressing
Register Banks repeatedly will cycle through all of your stored bank selections.
Simultaneously press Register Banks along with either Up or Down to
backstep. Turn SELECT to scroll through all of the effects in the bank. As in
Program Banks mode, an asterisk in front of the effect name indicates that the
displayed effect is not loaded. Press Register Banks to reselect the last
displayed effect in another bank. Unused registers are indicated by the message
"available" on the display. Press Load/

to load the displayed effect.

The organization of programs in the four program banks and descriptions of the
200 preset programs are given in Chapter 3.
