Basic Operation
PCM 81
Each preset has a set of Soft Row assignments which we've
selected for you (as well as an assignment for the ADJUST knob).
When shipped, the PCM 81 will power up in Go mode with the first
preset (P0 0.0) loaded. Press Edit to display the Soft Row of
parameters.
Pro mode gives you access to the full parameter matrix, including
the Soft Row. Use this mode when you want to do in-depth effects
editing or patching, or when you want to customize Soft Row
assignments.
Go mode and Pro mode selection is made in Control mode at
matrix location 1.0.
