Part 6: Editing Effects

QS7.1/QS8.1 Reference Manual 69

KEEPING TRACK: THE INTERACTION OF

EFFECTS, PROGRAMS, AND MIXES

Effect Send levels and Configuration assignments are saved as either part of a

Program (when in Program Edit mode), or as part of each Channel in a Mix (when in

Mix Edit mode). Keep in mind that these are separate from any changes that you

might make to a given Configuration’s parameter settings!

If you are in Mix Mode, for example, and make changes in both the Mix and the

underlying Effect, you will have to store not only the Program that is on the Effect

Channel (thus saving its Effects Patch), but also the current Mix. If you don’t do both,

then this Mix won’t sound the way you expect it to the next time you call it up.

Another thing to be aware of is that a single Program might be part of more than one

Mix. So if you change the Effect in that Program, the change will ripple through and

be heard in every Mix which has its Effect Channel set to use that Program’s Effect.

(The way around this is to save the altered Program as a new Program, and assign

this new version to the Mix in question in place of its previous version.)

PICKING AN EFFECT CONFIGURATION

The starting point of every Effect is its Configuration, which controls all routing and

parameters. Each is a unique arrangement of multiple effect blocks, distributed

across anywhere from two to four of the effect sends. Configurations also determine

where each block’s input comes from, and where each block’s output goes — to the

Reverb, to the next effect in line, or straight to the main outputs.

The Configuration diagrams that follow will help guide you through the many

choices that are possible in each different configuration. We recommend that you

refer to them often as you experiment with creating your own Effects or editing

existing ones.

Every time you select a new Configuration you run the risk of resetting many of the routings

and parameters in that Configuration to their default values. So always press [40] in Effects

Edit Mode to select a Configuration FIRST, before doing any other editing.

The five Effect Configurations are:

• 1 Reverb

• 2 Reverbs

• Lezlie+Reverb

• Reverb+EQ

• Overdrive+Lezlie

To pick a Configuration, enter Effects Edit Mode and then press [40], the button that

has CONFIGURATION printed above it. The display will change to look like this:

Use the [▲ VALUE] and [VALUE ▼] buttons or the [EDIT VALUE] slider to select one

of the five possible Configurations. As you scroll through the choices, each one’s

name will appear in the display.
