Editing Effects: Chapter 7
QuadraSynth Plus Piano Reference Manual 130
Clip
While routing sounds into the effects processor, the word “CLIP” will
temporarily appear in the display if an input is overloading the effects. If this
should occur, try reducing the Input Levels for each of the effects devices in the
current configuration, and (if necessary) reduce the Effects Levels in the
Mix/Program.
Editing Effects
The Effects Patches themselves are not edited in Program Edit Mode or Mix Edit
Mode, but (could you guess it?) Effects Edit Mode. You can enter Effects Edit
mode by pressing the [SELECT] button until the display looks something like
this:
MIDI
CHAN
PROGPROG
1
PRESET
EDITING: 1 EFFECT
PITCH MOD
CONFIG REVERB DELA Y MIX MISC.
P AGE: 1 2
The basic method of navigating through the displays in Effects Edit mode is
similar to that in Program Edit Mode and Mix Edit Mode.
• The FUNCTION [♦] and [∅] buttons and the DIRECT SELECT buttons
are used to select a function (Pitch, Mod, Name, Configuration, Reverb, Delay
and Mix).
• If a function has more than one page, the display will indicate the
number of pages available in the bottom left corner. Use the PAGE [♦] and [∅]
buttons to scroll through a function’s pages.
• Use the [EDIT 1] button to select which of the four effect sends you want
to edit (the [EDIT 4] button will not let you edit multiple sends, but rather will
switch the display back to Program Edit mode and enable Edit 4 mode).
The important thing to understand is the hierarchy of the displays. Think of it as
a three dimensional game of Chess, where you can move among three different
axes. Each function has 1 or more pages. But, the number of pages a function has
available will differ when another effect send is selected (using the [EDIT 1]
button). For example, if you are using Configuration #1 and trying to edit the
Reverb parameters, you would need to have effect send 1 selected, because that’s
where the Reverb is located. So, you not only have to be aware of how to select a
function and a page, but how to select the effect send as well.
Not all effects are available in each Configuration. For example, if you were to
select the Pitch function on effect send 4 in Configuration #1, the display would
read, “(NOT IN THIS CONFIG).” This is because a Pitch module is available on
