CONTROL BUTTONS
The buttons on the front panel engage or select the different functions of the
SGX 2000. Modes of operation are indicated by LED's. When the LED is lit the
function is active.
Ten of the control buttons serve a dual purpose. The split functions are set
apart by color. While you are in the PRESET MODE (standard operating mode), all
buttons labeled in purple are active. When the EDIT MODE is engaged, the numbered
keypad entry buttons are used for preset effects control and utilities to be
accessed. These functions are labeled in grey.
FUNCTION BUTTONS
The function buttons are those which select a particular function or feature to
be executed or entered for modification. Status of the function button being in
an active or inactive state is displayed by an LED next to the button
identification. The function is active when the LED is lit.
PRESET
The PRESET button, when pressed, engages Preset Mode. Once this button is
pressed, all 200 presets may be accessed by either the keypad or rotary encoder.
When the SGX 2000 is first powered on, you are automatically in Preset Mode.
Audio is being processed constantly while you are scrolling through the presets
with the encoder.
Two methods of Preset selection are used, scanning (with the ENCODER) and keypad
entry. Selecting a preset with the encoder is easy. Scroll through the presets by
turning the knob clockwise to go forward and counterclockwise to go backwards,
the preset will instantly be recalled when you stop. Each click of the encoder
will change the preset value by one.
For instantaneous recall of the preset using the keypad buttons, select the exact
preset number. For example; if you want preset 196, locate the buttons shown on
the front panel labeled 0 through 9 (the numbers are reversed image in purple),
