ROTARY ENCODER / SWITCH

The Rotary Encoder is used to change values or presets. Depending on the Quadra/FX’s

programming mode, it may also be pressed to change menus. See the tutorials beginning on

page 15 for more information on how to use the rotary Encoder/Switch.

POWER

The Power switch turns the unit on and off. The Numerical Display Window and various LEDs illuminate when

power is on. If the unit does not turn on when the switch is toggled, check the AC power cord and adapter. Also,

make sure the outlet that it is plugged into is “live,” by plugging in another piece of equipment that you know

works (try plugging into another outlet, too). If the outlet is good but the Quadra/FX does not turn on, consult

your dealer or A R T Customer Service.

ROUTING BUTTON

Routings control the way that sound is processed through the Quadra/FX and how

each Input feeds each Output. Press the Routing button and use the Encoder to scroll

through the four internal, audio routings: Discrete 4, Twin Stereo, Cascade, and

Stereo. (For a description and diagram of each routing, see page 27.) The currently

selected routing LED will flash. Press the Encoder or the Engine button to enable your

changes. BE CAREFUL WHEN CHANGING ROUTINGS. Once a Routing change is

enabled, the Quadra/FX reconfigures its internal architecture and loads in default

effects; the preset’s former effects, class, and parameter values are all replaced.
