3) Select a Default for the selected effect Type
The Default parameter allows you to select one of several effect settings stored in the Quad 4's library. For example,
there are 13 Stereo Reverb defaults to choose from. Each default is available in any program that uses the same size
effect module. So, if you like the Reverb that is being used in Factory Program 11, simply locate page one of the selected
FX module, then use the <4> button and the <Data> wheel to recall the default in your new program. This eliminates
the need to copy all those parameters from one location to the other. It also gives you several starting places so you can
get as close as possible to the custom sound you are trying to create. Once you edit one of the parameters in the FX
module, the default name is replaced with the word "Custom". This means that a default setting has been customized by
the user or changed by real-time modifiers for that program.
NOTE: There are two Banks available for the defaults, Bank A and Bank B. Effects stored in bank A contain the
dry signal for typical in-line applications. Effects in bank B do not contain the dry signal, and boosts the
effect level so it can be used with a mixing console's effect loops. EQ, Panner, Noise Gate, Tremolo and
Vocoder do not contain Dry level controls and therefore do not have a bank B available.
MODIFYING FX MODULE PARAMETERS EXAMPLE
Let's modify an effect Parameter. Factory Program 30 uses a quad delay with a delay time of 700 milliseconds. The
tap percentages are set to DlyA = 25%, Dly B =50%, Dly C =75%, and Dly D =100%, which gives you evenly spaced
delay taps. But suppose they're too slow to fit the tempo of a piece of music you're composing. With most effects
units, you'd have to recalculate each delay tap individually, but the Quad 4 makes it simple:
1. If you're not already there, switch to Program mode and use the <Data> wheel to scroll to Factory
program 30. The display reads:
2. Now press the <FX Edit> button twice. Note the current module being edited is flashing in the Effect
Routing Matrix. The display reads:
3. Press the <Next Page> button twice. Position 2 of the Information line shows that the current delay time
setting is 700 milliseconds. Remember that the total delay time shown in the display is divided among the
delay taps in the module. The display reads:
4. Use the <Data> wheel to decrease the delay time. The <Store> button lights and the CHANGED icon
will appear, indicating that the Program has been modified.
5. Press the <Program> button to return to Program mode, or continue in Edit mode by continuing to press
the <FX Edit> button.
NOTE: Make sure you store any changes before exiting Edit mode. See pg. 13 for more information.
