2) Display Window - The display window shows all current operating
and programming information and is comprised of several parts: the
LCD display, the input level meter, the Program number indicator,
and DSP Clip indicator LEDs. The LCD display shows all Program
names, Parameters and Parameter values, and is the communica-
tion interface between you and the RP-12. The input level meter
monitors the level of the signal entering the digital section. In the
Program number indicator window you will find the currently select-
ed Program number. This changes as you scroll through the avail-
able Programs. The functions of the Input Level Meter and DSP Clip
indicator LEDs are as follows:
• Input Level Meter - Displays the strength of the signal after the
preamp section in 6 dB steps, entering the digital section.
• DSP Clip - Indicates digital information overflow in the processor.
When lit, distortion may be heard in the output signal. The guide-
line for this indicator is:
let your ears be the judge
. If this indica-
tor lights regularly and no audible distortion is present, it can be
ignored. If distortion is audible in the output signal, one or more
of the internal analog effects levels or the DSP Master level in the
Program must be turned down to eliminate the problem.
3) Program Buttons - The Program <UP> and <DOWN> keys allow
you to scroll through the RP-12’s effects Programs. The <STORE>
key allows you to store a Program in memory for later recall. The
<COMPARE> key allows comparison of an edited Program with the
original unedited version before it is stored.
4) Parameter Buttons - The Parameter keys perform several different
functions. When the Program Title is displayed, the <UP> and
<DOWN> Parameter keys do nothing. The <RIGHT> key will move
you to the algorithm section, through the modules of the algorithm
and into the parameters of the program. The <LEFT> key moves
you in the opposite direction (see the diagram on page 12 for further
explanation). Once you have accessed the algorithm screen or
parameter screen with the <LEFT> and <RIGHT> parameter keys,
the <UP> and <DOWN> keys allow you to increase or decrease the
displayed values.
5) Effects Library Buttons - This group of buttons allows you to jump
directly to the first Parameter of Modules in the currently selected
Algorithm. The buttons in this group are: <COMP>, <DIST>, <EQ>,
<REVERB>, <DLY/SMP>, <PITCH>, <MOD>, <MIX>, and
<MORE>. Also included in this section and sharing buttons with the
<MOD>, <MIX>, and <MORE> buttons are the Function keys (indi-
cated by ¡, ™,and £) which act as menu selection keys in the Utility,
MIDI, and Naming menus.
6) Global Buttons - These buttons perform global functions. Some of
