Handling
The menus, particularly the 
EFFECTS menu, contain parameter 
groups that are related by virtue of 
their function, for instance, all 
parameters that are used to con-
trol the phaser. When you switch 
the phaser off (PHASER Dry/Eff = 
OFF), all Phaser parameters are of 
course irrelevant and will no longer 
appear in the menu. In other 
words, when the phaser is dis-
abled, you can’t view its parame-
ters. The reason for this is to make 
menus clearer and less cluttered.
The VALUE +/- buttons let you 
change the value of a parameter in 
steps. When you hold one of these 
buttons down, the value changes 
automatically and the longer you 
hold the button, the faster the 
pace of the value change. You can 
increase this pace even further by 
pressing and holding one VALUE 
button and simultaneously press-
ing the other VALUE button. If you 
press and release both VALUE but-
tons simultaneously, the parame-
ter is set to its default value 
(mostly zero). This pertains to uni-
polar parameters (value range of 0 
to 127) as well as bipolar parame-
ters (value range of -64 to +63).
You can also use the VALUE knob to 
change the value of the selected 
parameter. The VALUE knob 
responds to the KNOB MODE set-
tings as described in the paragraph 
below.
The triangular icon located next to 
the parameter value indicates in 
which direction you have to 
change a value if you would like to 
reset the parameter to the value 
that has been stored to date. The 
previously stored parameter value 
as well as the current value are dis-
played for parameters that feature 
a dedicated knob.
