The QUANTUM’s Wizard provides the easiest avenue for programming the unit. To access the
Wizard, press and hold the PROGRAM button.
Once in the Wizard mode, select the task you wish to perform. (The QUANTUM will automati-
cally choose the correct chain type for your task.) If you select Mastering or Mixing, the Wizard
will then ask you to select the type of music being played. After you have selected the music
type, select the desired type of EQ, gating, compression, and limiting (all of which are, of course,
influenced by the musical genre being played). For example, with the music type set to “Hard
Rock,” a “Light” compression setting will be heavier than a “Heavy” setting in the “Classical” mode.
If you select “Tracking,” you will be asked to setup channel one, channel two, or both (stereo).
If you are tracking two separate instruments in dual-mono, you can go through the Wizard twice
(setting up channel one the first time and channel two the second time). If at any time you want
to quit before completing the Wizard, press the PROGRAM button.
