Global Parameters
To edit the Global parameters, press the G
LOBAL switch and Global page 1 is
displayed. The P ARAM 1 knob changes the parameter on the upper LCD line, and the
P ARAM 2 knob changes the lower parameter. The +/Y ES and -/N O switches select the
other pages.
Note: If you hold the -/N O switch while you hit the +/Y ES switch, it will jump to the
last page. Similarly, if you hold the +/Y ES switch when you hit the -/N O switch, it
will jump to the first page.
Note: When in Combo mode, some of the Global parameters will be overwritten
by the Combo parameters.
