TC Electronic TC 2290 User Manual

Note that when looping in/out external effects with the TC 2290, the
external effects themselves must always be on. It is then up to the TC
2290 to choose whether the signal must be taken from the output of the
external effect (loop on) or the effect is simply to be ignored (loop off). So
when the LED corresponding to the external effect is off, the signal does
not pass the external effect (although it is still sent to the external effect.
In this way the quality of the signal with the external loop off is not
dependent on the sound quality of the external effect).
(02) EXT.EFFECTS LED DISPLAY
Indicates which effects (loops) are currently activated.
The effect loop control is by default stored with all other TC 2290 settings
in preset so that you can make total sound combinations. If you wish
however, they can be removed from preset control (with SPEC.NO. 18 set to
1),
MORE ABOUT EXTERNAL EFFECTS
A seperate application note (section [11]) and the rear panel connections
section [6.5] gives you more tips and hints about external effects control,
and how to connect external effects and/or instruments.
5.13 THE SPECIAL SECTION
This single key contains a lot of extra TC 2290
parameters. The hardware itself is capable of
controlling a lot more than is possible with the
individual keys on the front. So we installed this
<SPECIAL> key to make it possible for you to
‘tailor the TC 2290 to your individual
requirements, and open for future expansion
capabilities.
With the <SPECIAL> key you can program
completely different things such as Preset
Protect, Threshold Levels, monitor the last error
message, program the <ASSIGN KEYS> and so
on.
Most of the Special parameters are global, i.e. they affect all presets and
cannot be stored individually with single presets.
Each special number is a parameter with an associated special VALUE.
Some special numbers have continuously variable values e.g. from 'O' to ‘99’,
other special numbers simply act as ‘switches' and can only have the
values 'O' or ‘1’ (off/on).
(01) <SPECIAL>
By pressing the <SPECIAL> key a number will appear in the Delay Time
Display and the 'S.NO.' LED is lit. This is the number of the last accessed
special function.
If you press the <SPECIAL> key the last special number used will appear
in the DELAY TIME display. Observe that the little display to the right of
the DELAY TIME display reads 'S.NO.', indicating that the display now
shows a special number. A new special number can now be entered on the
numeric keyboard terminated by <ENTER>. Once you press <ENTER> the
value for the selected function appears in the DELAY TIME display ('S.VAL.
appears in the little display).
