Terms Used in This Manual
This section explains some important terms that are used in this manual.
Effect module
An "effect module" works like a stand-alone compact effect device for
tailoring certain aspects of the sound. As shown in the illustration below, the
PFX-9003 can be thought of as a series of such effect modules.
Effect types and parameters
Different types of sound within a module are called effect types. In most
modules, you can select one effect type from several choices. The various
settings of the effect module are called parameters.
Patches and banks
Effect module combinations and effect
parameter settings are stored and
recalled in units called "patches".
These are divided into user banks (A –
F) which can be changed, and preset
banks (0 – 5) which are read-only.
Because each bank has 10 patches
(numbered from 0 – 9), there are 120
patches in all.
Modes
Operation of the PFX-9003 is divided into various modes, which are used for
different purposes. There is a play mode for selecting and playing patches, an
edit mode for changing parameters, a tuner mode for using the built-in tuner,
a sampler mode for recording, etc.
