Overview
Using Show and Revert Param
Editing a program’s parameters causes the value for that parameter to be
displayed. But what if you want to see the value without editing it? show
allows a parameter to be displayed without actually changing it. Simply
press and hold show, and turn a knob or press a switch to display the
current setting. Or press show to turn it on and review multiple param-
eter settings before turning show off again.
Tip: Hold show and move the pitch wheel to see the bend range
settings.
At any point while editing a program, turn on comPare to hear the saved,
unedited program. Or, to revert to the saved program, just reload it by
pressing the lit Bank select switch. You can also revert a single param-
eter using revert Param. Just press and hold revert Param and turn a
knob to restore it to its saved value.
Saving Programs
Saving an edited program is easy. As mentioned previously, you can
compare the edited program to the saved program at any time using
comPare. Once you’re ready to commit, press write.
A. Write Bank (soft knob 1)—Choose the User Bank (1 through 4) to
which the program will be saved.
B. Write Program (soft knob 2)—Choose the program (1 through 99) to
which the program will be saved.
C. Select Char (soft knob 3)—Highlight a character in the current layers
name.
