The screen first prompts for a preset number, defaulting to the currently loaded preset. Numerical entry can be done with the up/down keys or by typing in numbers on the keyboard. Pressing SAVE a second time prompts for the user to give the preset a name, although it is not required. Text can be either upper or lower case, and is toggled with the CapsLock key. Pressing SAVE a third time writes the current settings, preset name, and preset number to memory. 5. 8 FLAT In the EQ screen, pressing the FLAT key quickly returns all faders to 0dB for beginning a new EQ curve. (Individual EQ frequencies can be "zeroed" by pressing both up and down keys simultaneously. ) In the HPF/LPF screen, the FLAT key resets the two filter frequencies to "off". 5. 9 COPY To quickly copy the settings of the current channel to another channel, press the COPY key. You will be prompted to enter a target channel. Press the desired Channel number key (and perhaps the Bank key, if applicable) that you want to copy to, then press COPY again to execute the copy, or ESC to exit. Note: The new channel which was copied to becomes the current channel, and although the new channel's preset name and number remain the same, the audio settings are now that of the channel from which the copy was just made. Unless it is saved however, no permanent changes are made to the preset formerly loaded to the new current channel. This feature is an easy way to copy settings from one channel to another without changing the preset name. 5. 10 IN/OUT Each of the four audio functions in the first menu (EQ, Limiter, HP/LPF, & Delay) can be switched in or out independently of one another. The IN/OUT key will only affect the audio function selected on the current channel's menu. 5. 11 MUTE Local Mute: The MUTE key turns off the currently selected local channel. A red LED is lit to the right of any channel which has been muted. If local channels are linked together, pressing MUTE on the dominant channel will also mute the dependent channels. Local mute overrides a system mute Remote Mute: Any MIDI channel can be muted from the remote control. Because of the limitations of MIDI however, only the Current Channel can display its mute status. The other three channels' mute LEDs will remain off on the remote, even if those channels are locally muted. [. . . ] Also check that switch "A" and "B" are configured properly, and that proper wiring is used (see page 20). 11. 3 - Battery Replacement * Caution * technician.
