To select an effects edit page, press a soft button under the page “tab” on the bottom
row of the display. In single effects, these pages are named PARAM1, PARAM2, etc.
In a multieffect each parameter page is named after the effect “block” it controls:
PLATE1 PLATE2 etc. The total number of Parameter pages depends on which Effect
Type the Program uses. The currently-selected page tab will have a box around it like
this:
PARAM1
Once you’ve entered a parameter page, the display shows up to six parameters at
once. Each parameter is displayed as a bar graph of its current value, relative to its
minimum and maximum values. The current value of a parameter is shown
numerically just under the bar graph. If the parameter is turned off,
OFF will display
in that section instead. Below the Parameter Value Row is the Parameter Name Row,
with the abbreviated names of the parameter (which are explained individually later
in this chapter). The complete name of the currently-selected parameter is shown on
the right side of the display, under the effect type.

Selection of a parameter (such as DECAY , BOOST or LPF on the middle row of the
display) happens automatically when you touch the soft knob for that parameter. As
you adjust a parameter, both its numerical value and bargraph will change in
relation to the slider’s position.
Tip: To make a small change to a parameter, you can repeatedly press the page’s soft
button, and each parameter on the page will be selected in turn. Its name will
be displayed in reverse type like this:
DECAY
Then, you can use the ▲ or ▼ buttons to change the value by small amounts.
