Speaker Modeling patches
At the time of purchase, the BR-1600CD’s Speaker Modeling
already contains 33 preset patches that cannot be overwritten
(P001 through P033), 33 user patches that can be used in any
song (U001 through U033), and 33 song patches that are
stored together with a specific song (S001 through S033).
User patches and song patches can be overwritten.

Modifying Speaker Modeling settings
Each of the effect blocks that make up the Speaker Modeling
feature can be fine-tuned by making the appropriate settings.
Before starting, however, you will need to select the Speaker
Modeling patch that you would like to change.
1.
Press [F2] (EDIT) on the Speaker Modeling patch
screen.
The Speaker Modeling edit screen will appear.
fig.37-06d
The left half of this screen will display the way in which
effect blocks are connected in this patch; the right half
will display the parameter settings for the effect block
currently highlighted by the cursor.
If the TIME/VALUE dial is turned counterclockwise at
this time, the solid lines indicating the effect block at the
current cursor position will switch to dotted lines,
indicating that the corresponding effect has been turned
off. Similarly, if the TIME/VALUE dial is turned
clockwise, the dotted lines will switch back to solid lines,
indicating that the effect has been turned on.
2.
Move the cursor to the effect block you want to edit and
press [F3] (=>PRM.).
The cursor will jump to the parameter area on the right
of the screen, and you will now be able to change the
parameter settings.
Note that you can press CURSOR [ ] or [ ] while on a
parameter setting screen to jump to the parameter setting
screen for the next effect block to the left or right, respectively.
