Structure of Effect Programs
The A1 is an all-in-one multi-effect processor, capable of
simultaneously combining up to 7 effects in what is called a
Chain. The Chain data, along with user-selectable effects
and their parameter settings, are stored to programs.

A program in the A1 is essentially an effect chain with effects, their
parameter and other settings in memory including a master output level
and noise reduction level and other settings.
An A1 program is an assembly of up to seven effects, which may be
simply considered as seven different effect devices linked together. The
pattern in which effects are linked is called a Chain. A Chain is the
connection pattern in which boxes (effect boxes) are lined up.
The A1 contains 59 families of effects, all of which can be allocated to
effect boxes to create different programs.
Different parameter patterns of an effect produce what are called
Variations of the effect. For example, reverb comes in a Variation of
Hall, Room, and Plate.
Elements called parameters determine the characteristics of an effect,
and can be assigned numerical values by the user.
• Threshold level - threshold level of the built-in noise reduction system
• Master volume - overall volume of the program
• Volume pedal placement
• External control position setting
