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.
