VSS3 / 21
When you start working with your preset, the A/B button is grayed out. This state indi-
cates that the settings in both memory locations A and B are identical - so there is
actually nothing to compare.
As soon as you touch one of the parameters, the memory location "A" will get active,
and the "A"-part of the A/B button will light up. All parameter changes will be applied
to memory location "A". If you switch to memory location "B", you get back to your
starting point, and all further changes will now be applied to memory location "B".
Every time you press the A/B button, you will toggle between these two memory loca-
tions.
NOTE: The A/B memory locations are temporary settings only! Saving a preset (e.g. via
the File button or with your session) will only save the currently selected memory loca-
tion. The setting of the other (hidden) memory location will not be saved!
The "Mem" button will reset the A/B memory locations to the current setting.
Locking Parameter values
- using the Parameter Lock
The parameter lock function allows you to lock the Dry Level, In Level and Out Level,
from changing when you change preset.
By using the parameter lock, you can easily browse through the extensive set of pre-
sets that comes with the VSS3, without having to change the Dry Level, In Level or
Out Level all the time.
To lock a parameter, simply click on the small lock in the parameter field. To unlock
it, click again.
The parameter lock only affects parameter changes made with the mouse. The param-
eter lock does not affect automation data or preset changes initiated from the host
application. These changes will always pass.
An example:
You have inserted the VSS3 on a channel.
When you use the VSS3 as an insert effect, you would probably like the dry part of the
signal to go trough the VSS3, and therefore you'd probably turn up the "Dry Level".
