The H8000FW has internal memory for Factory
programs (those that came with the unit) and
User programs (those that you have tweaked
and saved or created afresh). It can also save
programs on Memory Cards. Use the third parameter, Location, to filter which programs
are shown on the list menu page based on where they are saved (the default value, All,
shows all programs are shown regardless of where they are saved).
The fourth and fifth parameters, Inputs and
Outputs, filter which programs are shown on
the list menu page based on how many inputs
or outputs they use. Your choices are any (any
number of i/o’s), stereo (2 or 3 i/o’s), quad&2+2 (4 or 5 i/o’s), 5.1 (6 or 7 i/o’s), and
octal (8 i/o’s). This allows you to only display programs suitable for your application, i.e.
if you are working in 5.1 you may not want to be bothered with stereo effects, and vice-
versa.
Show determines if only those programs that
are loadable will be shown on the list menu
page or if any program will be shown. If you are
using higher sampling rates (e.g., 96kHz), some
programs are unloadable. Assuming you’re using a higher sampling rate, with Show set to
any, these programs have lines through them. To avoid this unpleasantness, leave Show
set to loadable. In the same way, some programs may only be loaded on DSP A, and
may not be loaded if DSP B is selected.
Similarly, some programs come in two versions: a monolithic version for 88/96k
operation, and a single machine version for 44/48k operation. Normally only the relevant
one of these is visible, but if
Show is set to any, both of these can be seen, as shown by
'Static' Flanger in the screen above.
Finally, Machines determines if only programs
that run on a single DSP will be shown (
A & B),
only those that are "monolithic" will be shown
(
II A only), or if both sorts of programs will be
shown (
any) on the list menu page.
A & B is useful if you know that you want a dual machine configuration and don't wish to
be bothered by monolithic programs. Similarly, if you want to only see the most powerful
programs, set it to
II A only.
