E-MEM (Effects Memory)
Effect Sequence
Effect sequence allows the operator to chain a set of specified effect regis-
ters together. Recalling the first register can initiate a sequential recall of all
the registers in the sequence. As each register is recalled, its settings will be
applied to the work buffer and the appearance of the system’s output
signals will change if they are affected. Delays can be programmed that
determine when the next register in the sequence will be recalled. Effect
dissolves can also occur as each register is recalled, though this is not
required (
Figure 37 ).
Figure 37. Effects Sequence
In the above example, recalling effect 2 as a sequence will proceed from
register 2 to register 0 to register 1 to register 3. A sequence can begin from
any of the effect registers in the sequence. For example, in the above
example if register 0 is recalled, the sequence will proceed from register 0
to register 1 to register 3.
Effect dissolves can occur within a sequence. The interpolator described
earlier is used to smoothly change to the next register in the sequence.
E-MEM Levels
The E-MEM system is divided into functional areas, called levels. Each
effect level corresponds to a specific set of system operational controls, or
to an individual interface to an external device. Effect levels are used to
allow the operator to store and recall settings for specific system control
areas without disturbing settings for other control areas. For example, on a
2-M/E Zodiak system each M/E has its own level. Each level also has its
own set of effect registers. The settings for M/E 1 can be recalled without
changing the settings for M/E 2, or PGM PST. The work buffer is actually
divided into sections that correspond to each effect level.
