All of the levels and signal selection outside the DSP are addressed in the LEVELS area and the SETUP
area. Refer to the “Eclipse System Signal Flow” sheet provided in the pocket of this manual to “look”
at the signal flow outside the DSP. You cannot save these settings as parts of programs.
All of the routing and levels inside the DSP are addressed in the PARAMETER area. Refer to the “Pro-
gram Signal Flow” sheet provided in the pocket of this manual to “look” at the signal flow inside the
DSP. All of these settings are saved as parts of programs.
This is as confusing as it gets, so if you have this straight you’re all set.
