NOTE: Panner and Rotary are stereo effects and are not available in Discrete 4 (mono) routing.

Engine:

It should now sound like different effect algorithms are processing the audio entering the

Quadra/FX; these are the default effects for the routing that you chose. To change an

effect, you must first select its engine or engine group. If you chose Stereo Routing, there

is only one available engine group and it is automatically selected for you. To select a

different engine when using any of the other routings, turn the Encoder. All Engine LEDs

are lit and the currently selected engine or engine group is flashing. Again, to review how the engines relate to the

Effects:

Press the Effects button to edit the selected engine’s effect. All available

Effect and Class LEDs are lit (more on Classes below) and the currently

selected Effect LED is flashing. To select a different effect, turn the Encoder

and then press the Class button to load it. If you press any other button

instead, the old effect will be restored.

Class:

you (its LED is flashing). Classes are effect variations and are named after the

Parameter:

available parameter LEDs remain lit, but now the currently selected

parameter is flashing and its value is shown in the Preset / Value Display.
