set modulation routings so any parameter can be controlled via
MIDI;
set the effect level for each Sound layer, and set which of the four
effect sends each Sound layer will use for signal processing (such as
reverb, delay, and chorus—or any combination of these).
Mix Edit Mode
Mix Edit Mode lets you change the parameters of an existing Mix. Up to
16 Programs can be active in each Mix, and Mix Edit mode sets up how
each will be played. Mix Edit Mode allows you to:
select which Programs will be played by the different MIDI
channels and by the keyboard in multiple layers or splits;
set the output level, effects level, and pan of each Program in the
Mix;
select which Program’s Effects Patch will be used by the Mix.
Effects Edit Mode
Effects Edit Mode is used for setting up the Digital Signal Processing
effects. Each Effect Patch has 4 effect bus inputs, and an internal
configuration of multiple effects such as reverb, delay, and pitch-related
effects (chorus, flange, etc.). You can determine what kinds of effects are
used on each bus (this is called a “Configuration”), change each effect’s
parameters (such as reverb decay time or chorus speed), set modulation
routings (such as having the modulation wheel change the decay time),
and set the effects mix (how much reverb, delay and chorus on the
output of each effect bus).
Global Edit Mode
Use Global Edit Mode to set various parameters which effect the entire
instrument, such as overall master tuning, display contrast, MIDI
controller settings, keyboard sensitivity, and how the unit will respond
to or generate messages in Mix Mode.
Store Mode
Store Mode is used for storing changes of Programs, Mixes and/or
Effects into the User Bank or onto a QuadraCard PCMCIA memory card
accessory. It is also used for transmitting the QuadraSynth Plus’s
parameters over MIDI for data storage purposes, copying sounds or
effects from one Program to another, and for transferring entire Banks to
or from a Sound Card.
Compare Mode
Once a Program has been edited in Program Edit Mode, or a Mix has
been edited in Mix Edit Mode, the word “EDITED” will appear in the
display next to the Mix/Program number. If [COMPARE] is pressed, the
word “COMPARE” will appear in the display, and you will temporarily
