9—Tweak Parameters
The Tw eak Par am e t e r Solut ion
While the number of parameters offered by the DP/Pro’s algorithms makes the DP/Pro a powerful
audio processing tool, there are some parameters that you’ll find yourself reaching for time and time
again. The DP/Pro allows you to designate these parameters as Tweak parameters that are never
more than a few button presses away from your fingertips. In each DP/Pro effect, eight algorithm
parameters in ESP-A and eight in ESP-B can be designated as Tweak parameters.
The process for using Tweak parameters has two parts: setting them up, and then accessing and
adjusting them.
D e signat ing Tw e ak Par am e t e r s
The first step in using Tweak parameters is to designate as Tweak parameters the algorithm
parameters to which you want quick access. ESP-A and ESP-B each offer eight Tweak parameter slots.
As each Tweak parameter slot is displayed, you can select the algorithm parameter you’d like to
designate as the displayed Tweak parameter.
The Set Tweak Params Display
The ESP-A and ESP-B Set Tweak Params display is accessed via the Params A and B buttons. Since
other types of parameters are also accessed by pressing these buttons, the top line of the Set Tweak
Params display establishes the kind of parameters being edited, while the eight Tweak parameter slots
appear on the bottom line:
The ESP being edited The type of parameter being edited
m m
ESP-A: Set Tweak Params
Param A1=Size
i p

ESP-A’s Tweak parameters are “Param A1,” “Param A2,” and so on through “Param A8”; ESP-B’s are
“Param B1” through “Param B8.”
The number of each Tweak parameter is reflected in the DP/Pro’s auxiliary display:
The “P” stands for “parameter”
