PCM 91
THE SOFT ROW
When shipped, the PCM 91 will power up in Go mode with the first
preset (P0 0.0 Deep Blue) loaded. Press Edit to display the Soft
Row of parameters which have been designed for this preset. In
this example, 10 soft row parameters have been assigned. The
name of each Soft Row parameter is displayed, along with a refer-
ence to its row in the Edit matrix. Turn SELECT to scroll all of the
available parameters in the Soft Row. Turn ADJUST to change the
value of any displayed parameter along its entire range.
Each effect has four available Custom Controls which can be
patched to one or more parameters and assigned to the Soft Row.
Like the ADJUST knob, Custom Controls can be individually named
and can have customized range limits to make them more useful.
In the presets, Custom Controls are assigned to the Soft Row in
sequence after Mix, so that their positions in the Soft Row will
always relate to their Control number. This is a convention you may
want to follow in creating your own Soft Rows.

Each preset has a Soft Row of parameters which have been specifically selected
to provide everything you need to play with the effect. This example show the
Soft Row for P0 0.0 Deep Blue. An asterisk in front of a displayed parameter
indicates additional parameters are available when you press Load/Q.
Soft Row parameters are derived from the full Edit matrix (with the exception of the
Patch row). In the presets, they are arranged according to their numerical order in
the matrix after Mix and any Custom Controls.
