Checking the Knob/Button Values
5 By operating a knob or button
while you hold down the [EXIT]
button , you can see its current
value in the display without
actually changing the setting of
that knob or button.
5 When you recall settings (sounds) in Memory mode, the
values of the settings do not match the positions of the
physical knobs. For example, if the value of a knob’s setting
is 12 o’clock, but the physical knob is turned to the far left,
the value will not change until you turn the knob through
the 12 o’clock position.
