Owner's Manual 62. PRESET DISPLAY These displays show the number of the currently selected effects preset, as shown in the list of presets silkscreened to the right. Rotate the preset selector knob to choose a preset. The new preset will be loaded approximately 1/4 of a second after you stop turning the knob, and will be stored into the FX memory after about one second. When the powered mixer is turned on, the FX section will load up the last-used preset. 63. PRESET SELECTOR, TAP DELAY and LED Rotate these endless controls to select one of the 24 preset effects. When you stop the rotation, that preset will be loaded and become operational. The current preset number is shown in the display [62]. The different presets are shown in this table and marked on the panel silkscreen. Further details of each preset are shown in Appendix D on page 34. 64. INTERNAL FX MUTE When engaged, the internal effects processor is muted, and its output will not appear on the main mix or monitor 1 mix (or anywhere). The adjacent mute LED will come on as a reminder that the effects are muted. The footswitch connection [20] becomes disabled, and you will not be able to use the footswitch to mute or unmute the effects. If this switch is not engaged, then the internal effects are set free and can be added as required to the main mix and monitor 1 mix, and can be muted or unmuted with the footswitch. Congratulations! You've just read about all the features of your powered mixer. Time for a cold one. 1 Plate Reverb 2 Vocal Plate 3 Warm Room 4 Bright Room 5 Warm Lounge 6 Small Stage 7 Warm Theater 8 Bright Stage 9 Warm Hall 10 Concert Hall 11 Cathedral 12 Gated Reverb 13 Chorus 14 Chorus + Reverb 15 Doubler 16 Tape Slap 17 Delay 1 Brt 350ms 18 Delay 1 Wrm 300ms 19 Delay 2 Brt 250ms 20 Delay 2 Wrm 200ms 21 Delay 3 Brt 175ms 22 Delay 3 Wrm 150ms 23 Chorus + Dly 300ms 24 Reverb + Dly 200ms The knob also offers a tap delay function for the presets 17 to 24. This works as follows: 1. Use the knob to select a preset from 17 to 24. 2. Press the knob in at least two times. The DSP processor will calculate the time delay between the last two pushes, and it will assign this time interval to the echoes of the current digital delay. The minimum tap delay is 50 ms and the maximum is 500 ms. • If your taps are faster than 50 ms, they will be set to 50 ms. • If taps are between 500 ms and 1 second, they will be set to 500 ms. • If taps are greater than 1 second apart, they will be ignored. Try again a bit faster. 3. The LED will flash in time with the new tap delay time. Owner's Manual 27
