Advanced KDFX
Real-time Control of KDFX
The KDFX Pages
If you look inside any program, you will see several pages that handle the studio and KDFX
control assignments. Open up a program with the Edit button and press more> until you see
this at the bottom of the display:
<more||KDFX|||FXMOD2|FXMOD3|FXMOD4|more>A
These are the FXMod setup pages, and in fact there are eight of them—press more> again to see
the others.
<more||FXLFO||FXASR||FXFUN||ImpFX||more>A
Go back to the first set (press <more), and press the KDFX soft button to look at the first of the
FXMod setup pages:
The top line tells us we’re in the KDFX section of the Program Editor. The second line shows the
studio that is linked to this program. Any changes made on this page do not directly affect the
studio, they affect only this program’s control over the studio.
The last three lines (ignoring the Soft buttons) show us which FXMods are active in this
program: one is controlling Wet/Dry mix on insert FXBus1, one is controlling feedback level on
insert FXBus2, and one is controlling the Bass Gain on the first EQ of Input A.
Looking Into the Studio
You can go into this studio, to see what the parameters are doing—a good idea when you are
setting up FXMods so you understand them in context—or to alter a fixed parameter. You can
do this without leaving the Program Editor: highlight any parameter on this page and press
Edit. When you are done with the studio, pressing Exit will bring you back to this page. If you
have made any changes in the studio, you will be prompted to save the studio, and if you don’t
do so, the changes will be disregarded.
If you do save the studio, either in the same numbered location or a new one, the new studio
will now be linked to this program. If you have changed the studio’s number, then you’ll also
have to save the program when you leave the Program Editor, so that the program knows which
studio to link to the next time you call it up.
Setting Up FXMods
The KDFX page allows three different FXMod control assignments to be made. More FXMod
assignments are available on the FXMOD2, FXMOD3, and FXMOD4 pages, each of which has
