[. . . ] Machine 1-4 Select each virtual machine's channel here. Bank Dump Lets you copy an entire bank of presets from the PCM92 to another device via MIDI. (For a map of banks and presets, see page 26; to see the current preset's bank number, press Knob C while viewing the Preset screen. ) When Bank Dump is highlighted, turn the corresponding B or C Knob to select a bank.

This control allows you to specify the value of the beat. Eighth, quarter, and half note values are available. If, for example, the rate is 120 BPM, and you select eighth-note here, the tempo will be 120 eighth-notes per minute. If you select quarter-note here, the tempo will be 120 quarter-notes per minute. (The factory default is quarter-note. ) 20 Tempo Source Select INTERNAL to determine the tempo using parameters within the PCM92, or MIDI to set the tempo using MIDI beat clock. Refer to your DAW's manual to learn how to transmit this value. NetWoRK coNFIG Here you can set the PCM92 Subnet Mask, IP Address, Gateway, and DHCP information. Turn the Select knob to select a three-digit number (of the DHCP value) and turn Knob A to change the number (or the DHCP value).

To access the Machine menu, press the Select knob while a Machine Preset is loaded. The sub-menus vary depending on what algorithm is active. SoFt RoW SetUP This sub-menu lets you assign parameters to a Machine Preset's soft row. The soft row is the list of parameters that appears below a Machine Preset's name in the Preset screen. You can easily adjust these parameters with the A, B, and C knobs (press Knob A to see more parameters in the soft row). I/o LeveLS Here you can adjust the following settings (depending on the selected preset): Wet Dry Mix Adjusts the proportion of wet (processed) signal to dry (unprocessed) signal. Ranges from 0% (all dry) to 100% (all wet). In almost all cases you will leave this at 100%, and control levels on your mixer. 21 Input Level Controls the amount of signal admitted into the process from the input. Ranges from 0. 0dB INV to ­90. 0dB INV or OFF INV, and from ­90. 0dB or OFF to 0. 0dB.

Shape controls just how the signal is injected during this window. Tail Width This parameter is present in all stereo reverbs and rooms. [. . . ]
