The buttons are used to select the action of the Knob. When a button is pressed,
its LED is lit, the display indicates the parameter or preset name, and the Knob is
active.
X, Y, Z buttons
Preset parameters are adjusted by pressing the X, Y, or Z button and then turning
the Knob. All three parameter buttons behave in the same way. Why three
parameter buttons? In order to get the most out of H9’s effects in a live situation,
we believe that it’s important to give you ‘top level’ control of the parameters that
you’ll want to adjust on-the-fly.
When you press an X, Y, or Z button, its LED lights and the parameter name is
displayed. Turn the Knob to change the parameter’s value. The LightRing
indicates the Parameter’s value (all LEDs OFF indicates minimum, all ON
maximum). Press the Knob to display the parameter’s current value.
Each of the X, Y, Z buttons can function in one of two ways. In “NORMAL” mode, a
single parameter is assigned to each button. These assignments are set by the
Preset and were judged to be ‘most important’ by the Preset creator. All of our
algorithms however have more than three parameters.
To access additional parameters, press and hold one of the buttons. “EXPERT” will
display. Repeatedly pressing the button will step through all of the parameters for
the current Preset. In “EXPERT” mode, the parameter’s value is displayed. Turn the
Knob to change the Parameter value.
TIP: Some parameters (e.g. Delay time) have a wide range and you may want to
‘fine tune’ their value. Press the Knob and it becomes a fine tune adjustment dial.
When fine-tuning, the LightRing LEDs are unlit. Press again to return to ‘coarse’
adjustment.
To display the Parameter value without changing it, simply press the Knob.
To return to “NORMAL” mode, press and hold the currently lit button.
