Editing an Existing Program
1.
In Program mode, select the Program that you want to use as a starting
point.
2.
Use the knobs and switches on the front panel.

Creating a Program from Scratch
Tocreateasoundfromscratch,werecommendthatyouusethePanel Load
function.Thiswillloadthecurrentseingsofeachfrontpanelcontroland
provideasimplestartingpointforyouriconiccreations.
Asyouexplorethefrontpanelcontrols,youcanseehoweachparameterwill
aectthesound,makingiteasiertounderstandhoweachsectionofthemono-
loguefunctionsandhowtheparametersinteract.
Panel Load function
WhenthePLAYbuonispressedwhileholdingdowntheSHIFTbuon,the
panelloadfunctionwillbeenabled.Thesoundwillchangetoreectthepanel
