Effect setups are stored in E-MEM registers. There is a total of 100 
registers, grouped in ten banks of ten registers. Each register 
belongs to a specific bank (0 through 9) and has a unique number 
(0 through 9) within that bank. For example, register 46 means 
bank 4, register 6.

When the system is powered up, the keypad readout comes up 
with a “NO CURRENT REG” message.

An E-MEM “effect” has generally been considered to be whatever 
was stored in an E-MEM register. This consisted of the status of 
enabled levels of the switcher as set up on the control panel and in 
the menus, at the time the E-MEM effect was stored (“learned”).

However, the Model 2200 Switcher is able to store more than one 
switcher state (“a keyframe”) on each enabled level in a single E-
MEM register, and to transition, or “run,” between keyframes. 
Therefore, a keyframe effect is considered to be a sequence of 
keyframes stored in a single E-MEM register. 

You may think of an E-MEM effect as being the same as a 
keyframe effect, but consisting of a single keyframe on each 
enabled level. This mode of operation (single-keyframe effects) 
may still be used, and may be preferable to multiple-keyframe 
effects in many instances.
