TUTORIAL
The best way to understand the DMV-PRO is just to jump in and edit some presets. It doesn’t take long and
you’ll see how easy editing is due to the DMV-PRO’s intuitive layout. This section consists of four tutorials:
Starting from Scratch and Changing Effects, Editing Effect Parameters, MIDI, and Advanced Applications.
After you finish the tutorials, check out the section entitled The DMV-PRO’s Adjustable Parameters, on page
26, for a complete list of each effect’s parameters and parameter ranges.
INTRODUCTION :
The DMV-PRO contains four DSP engines and four separate input and output channels. Typically, an engine
processes one individual channel of audio. Two engines can be combined into stereo groups with separate
audio channels and linked control parameters. Two stereo groups can be run in series to create multiple
effects and there’s even a special routing that runs two mono engines and one stereo group in series to
create even longer multi-effect chains. By the way, each engine or engine group has its own EQ and delay
section and many classes also contain a dynamics sensing section, so effect chains can actually be quite
long. Engines #1 and #2 are always controlled by the DMV-PRO’s Processor (A) section and Engines #3 and
#4 are always controlled by Processor (B). Resource distribution between the inputs and outputs is
automatically handled by our proprietary Dynamic Engine Allocation (DEA™) technology. DEA allows for the
following creative signal-routing options:
Twin Stereo
Twin Stereo routing contains two effect-processors
with two linked engines each. The result is two true-
stereo effects. Each channel’s audio remains
independent, but the effect parameters of each group
are linked to create stereo processing. The first effect
(Inputs, Outputs, and Engines #1 and #2) is edited in
Processor (A) and the second effect (Inputs, Outputs,
and Engines #3 and #4) is edited in Processor (B).
