Welcome to the ASR-X Pro UserÕs Guide, and congratulations on your purchase of the ENSONIQ ASR-X
Pro. This book contains a step-by-step tour of the major features of the ASR-X Pro. For more detailed
information on the topics discussedÑand moreÑsee the ASR-X Pro Reference Manual.
The first part of the UserÕs Guide is structured as a tutorial, meant to be read and followed in the order in
which itÕs presented. This approach will allow you to become familiar with ASR-X Pro concepts and
procedures one at a time, and will let you build up your understanding ofÑand comfort withÑthe way
the ASR-X Pro works. The tutorial will only take about a half hour to complete. Along the way, youÕll get

contains a list of the sounds built into your ASR-X Pro, and a list of its insert effects and their parameters.

The display located in the center of the ASR-X Pro front panel will always tell you
what you need to know as you do different things on the ASR-X Pro. Many ASR-X
Pro procedures will be presented as questions that you can answer by pressing the

When a question is being asked, the LEDs in the No and Yes buttons will flash.
Some activities involve a series of parameters and/or procedures. In such cases, youÕll begin by
answering ÒYesÓ to a top-level question. From there youÕll encounter parameters and/or further
questions presented on sub-displays that relate to what youÕre doing. To exit back out to the top level of
the ASR-X Pro, you can press the Exit/No button.
