TC Electronic TC 2290 User Manual

description of the Bypass Methods in [5.1]
The particular setting of Spec.No. 26 value {in this case in PRESET 10) is
individual for each PRESET. Other Spec.No.s have influence on all presets
when changed (‘global’), and some even erase all your presets, so be
carefull when using the <SPEC> key !.
- And now let's try a ‘making life easier’ function:
<ASSIGN> keys
In the previous spec.no example of changing the Bypass Method we used
the following sequence of keystrokes:
<SPEC> <2> <6> <ENTER> <0O> <ENTER> - a total of 6 keystrokes.
If you want to change the Bypass Method in - say 30 presets, you'll have
to make a total of 180 keystrokes (besides the preset shifts).
But that's not needed. The assign <KEY A> or <KEY B> can make life
easy for you by doing a ‘programmed sequence of key pressings’ for you.
To program the assign <KEY A> we use the <SPEC> again,
press:
Spec.No Keycode Comments
ol CAIRE, oe, aa]
<SPEC><4><0><ENTER> <3><5><ENTER> ; 35 = keycode for <SPEC>
<SPEC><4><1><ENTER> <2><ENTER> ; 2 = = - key <2>
<SPEC><4><2><ENTER> <6><ENTER> ; 6 = = - key <6>
<SPEC><4><3><ENTER> <1><1><ENTER> ; 11 = = ~ <ENTER>
<SPEC><4><4><ENTER> <O><ENTER> ; O = = - key <0>
<SPEC><4><5><ENTER> <1><1><ENTER> ; 11 = = - <ENTER>
<SPEC><4><6><ENTER><1><9><9><ENTER> ;199 = <END OF ASSIGN>
Now the assign <KEY A> is programmed to be a ‘<set bypass to input
mute>' key.
Any time it is touched it does <<SPEC> <2> <6> <ENTER> <1> <ENTER>>
for you. This function for assign <KEY A> is ‘global’ (i.e. independent of
current preset#) and continues forever - or until it's re-programmed.
Other examples of ‘your own keys’
Tne above was an example of ‘making life easy’ by letting an assign key
do a sequence for you. Other examples are numerous, the assign keys (two
on the front panel and up to 4 as remote switches) can be programmed to
do any key pressing sequence for you (pressing from 1 to 9 keys for you).
You'll find a list of 'keycodes' (one no. for each key to be used when
programming the assign keys in [9.5], and also an example for programming
assign <KEY A> to do <PRESET UP> again.
lf you now have the impression that the TC 2290 has a lot of controls, we
just want to tell you that ‘there are more than meets the eye’. You can
combine any key sequence to make your own keys. Also there a number of
usefull ‘image’ keys. Keys that are built in your TC 2290, but not physically
placed on .the frontpanel. The <PRESET UP> and <PRESET DOWN> are
