Effects Mode and the Effects Editor
The Effects Editor
9-6
The top line tells you that youÕre in the Effects Editor, and identiÞes the conÞguration
(explained below) of the currently selected preset effect. The bottom line labels the active soft
buttons. The parameters you see depend on the currently selected conÞguration.
The Name, Save, and Delete soft buttons handle the basic library functions for user-deÞned
effects, and the Dump soft button initiates a System Exclusive dump of the current effectÕs
settings.
Editing Effects
The K2vx interacts with the global effects processor as if it were a separate multi-effects unit
thatÕs been mounted internally. There are 47 factory preset effects, and room for you to store 80
of your own preset effects. Like any other K2vx object, the preset effects are edited by selecting
parameters and changing their values.
Each factory preset effectÑas well as any preset effects you create yourselfÑuses one of 27
available conÞgurations. The conÞgurations are simply different sets of familiar programmable
effects generators, the kind youÕd Þnd on any outboard effects unitÑreverb, chorus, parametric
and graphic EQ, delay, and mixers. Various combinations of these effects generators make up
the conÞgurations.
When you enter the Effects Editor, the conÞguration for the currently selected preset effect is
shown on the top line of the display. If you want to tweak a preset effect slightly, simply adjust
the values for one or more of the parameters on the page. You can then name and save the new
effect, either ÒreplacingÓ the ROM preset or saving to a RAM location by giving it an unused
ID. If you ÒreplaceÓ a ROM effect with one of your own, deleting your effect will restore the
ROM effect.
Use the CHAN/BANK buttons to change the conÞguration to be used by the currently selected
preset effect. YouÕll want to do this only when youÕre creating new effects that differ in type
from the current effect, since changing the conÞguration can drastically change the nature of
the effect.
