EDITING BASICS
When you load a preset in VoicePrism, you can use it exactly the way the preset was
programmed at the factory or you can modify it. The design of the VoicePrism
allows four different parameters to be adjusted easily from the main preset screen
using the softknobs below the LCD.
It is simplest for you to sing through the VoicePrism and alter the softknob settings in
order to get a feel for how the different parameters affect the sound. There is an
abbreviated name above each softknob to let you know which parameter you are
adjusting, the current setting is displayed below the parameter name. For a full
description of each parameter refer to the VoicePrism User Manual.
You are not limited to the softknob parameters that have been preprogrammed at
the factory. Press one of the softknobs and you'll see a menu from which you can
choose a different parameter to edit with that softknob. Spin the softknob to select a
parameter and press again to set. The new parameter is now assigned to that soft-
knob.
Here is a list of the softknob parameters you can choose from:
