Audition the Programs
The PCM 80 offers two levels of editing control: Go mode and Pro mode.
Turn SELECT to view the
available parameters.
Go mode gives you access to a specific set of as many as 10
parameters for each of the 200 presets. We have designed
each set of parameters to allow you to make changes to the
effect without losing the character of the sound.
In Go mode, press Edit to
access the most useful pre-
set parameters for the cur-
rently running effect.
Pro mode gives you access to the full effect edit matrix
whenever you press Edit. The edit matrix contains all effect
parameters, as well as Patching and Modulation controls.
Turn ADJUST to change the
value of any displayed pa-
rameter.
The PCM 80 is shipped in Go mode. To change the Edit mode,
press Control, use SELECT and Up and Down to locate
matrix position 1.0. Turn ADJUST to select Go or Pro.
Edit
Press Bypass to mute the
input signal. A Bypass Mode
parameter at Control mode
1.3 allows you to select input
muting, output muting, input

as alternatives. You can also
assign the bypass function to
an external controller.
When you turn ADJUST, or
perform any other param-
eter edits, the front panel
Compare light will go on to
indicate that the program
has been modified since it
was last stored. Press Com-
pare to hear the unedited
version. Press again to re-
turn to your edited program.
