Programming Effects
The SQ-R effects are highly programmable. There are several effect parameters
for every effect type. The first screen contains the effect selector. The effect
selector is a little different than all of the other parameters in that it controls how
all of the other effect screens will be configured and displayed. When this
parameter is changed, a new effect is selected which causes several important
things to occur.
When a new effect is selected:
• a new effect is loaded, causing a brief pause in the audio output,
• the effect parameter screens are redefined for the particular effect selected, and
• the effect parameter values are reset to their default settings for the effect.
Hint: When editing the effect selector, it is possible to change the new effect type
quickly and avoid the brief delay caused by the actions described above. Pass
rapidly over the types between the old type and the* new type, and then pause.
The new effect will be recalled only after you stop changing the type.
The Effects Busses
The output of every voice in the SQ-R is assigned to a stereo bus. A bus, like the
bus of a mixing board, mixes together all the voices assigned to that bus into a
single stereo pair. Of the three busses on the SQ-R, two are inputs into the signal
processor (FXl and FX2), and the third is a direct path to the Main outputs which
bypasses all effect processing (DRY). The Destination Bus assignment for each
voice is set in the Output bank. The voice settings in the sound can be over
ridden for each preset track in the Parameters bank.
