The MAIN Page
In the Chain Editor, pressing the MAIN soft button calls up the MAIN page. is is where
you congure the length of a Chain and select the individual eects that make up the Chain.
At the top right of the display is the number of DSP units used by the currently selected
eect- box, and by the Chain as a whole. ere are a total of 32 units available for all of
the Chains that are currently loaded by programs and any active Aux overrides from Multi
Mode.
NOTE: In some congurations, not all 32 units are available for use with multi-unit
eects because of the way the DSP is allocated internally.
Like all other representations of signal paths in the Forte display, the program signal moves
from left to right through the Chain. Use the cursor buttons to select an eect-box or empty
spot in the Chain. e eect loaded into the selected eect-box can be changed by numeric
entry, with the Alpha Wheel, or with the +/– buttons; and can be changed with either the
eect-box or the Eect eld at the bottom of the page highlighted. e +/- double button
press will jump to the next eect “category.”
Pressing the INSPRE soft button adds a new eect-box to the Chain in the currently selected
block-slot, and pushes the currently selected eect-box down the Chain to the right. (If you
have run out of DSP units, you will not be able to create additional eects boxes.) Pressing
the REMOVE soft button takes the currently selected eect out of the Chain.
