Audition Automation  
 
There are two ways to toggle between the programs in the 
Audition List: manually and automatically. The DEQ230 defaults 
to the automatic method, which we call Audition Automation. 
Once you have finished adding programs to the Audition List, the 
DEQ230 begins cycling through the programs from left to right. It 
will start with the currently active program, pause for several 
seconds, and move on to the next. When it reaches the last 
program in the Audition List, it will start over again from the first 
one on the left. Remember that the stack of  four LEDs will 
indicate which program is currently the active one. Also note that 
you can edit the Audition List by adding or removing programs 
during the Audition Automation cycle.  
 
It’s possible to shorten or lengthen the amount of  time spent on 
each program in the Audition List during Audition Automation. 
Use the [DOWN/UP] buttons for this purpose. The time range 
is from 1-25 seconds in increments of  one second. You will see 
the value briefly in the Numeric LED Display as you change it, 
and then the display will resume showing the number of  the 
current program in the Audition List. The Audition Automation 
time value you select will be remembered even after turning the 
DEQ230 off  and on again.

If  you want to hear a certain program again without having to wait 
for the DEQ230 to cycle through the entire Audition List, simply 
press and hold that program's [BAND SELECT] button. This 
will call up that program immediately. And as long as you hold 
down that [BAND SELECT] button, the DEQ230 will suspend 
the Audition Automation cycle and stay on that program. Once 
you release the button, the next program in the Audition List will 
be called up and the cycle will continue from there. 
 
Manual Audition  
 
If  you prefer to call up each program in the Audition List at your 
own pace, then you must turn off  the Audition Automation 
feature. To do this, you will need to enter Setup mode and toggle 
the setting for the AUD AUTO function. For information on how 
to do this, see page 46. 
 
Once you have turned off  the Audition Automation feature, 
navigation through the Audition List is handled by the 
[DOWN/UP] buttons. Pressing the [DOWN] button will move 
you leftward through the Audition List, and pressing the [UP] 
button will move you rightward through the list. If  you have a lot 
of  programs in the Audition List, hold down one of  those buttons 
and after a couple of  seconds the DEQ230 will begin to scroll 
through them more quickly.  
If you want to audition 
programs in a specific 
order, save them to 
locations in the User area 
(programs 30-59) in the 
order you’d like to hear 
them. Then select them in 
Audition mode. 
When changing the time 
value for the Audition 
Automation, keep in mind 
that the choices “wrap”; 
i.e., you can reach a value 
of 25 from a value of 01 
with a single press of the 
[DOWN] button.
