After you have finished reading the instructions, put them in a safe place for future reference. [. . . ] You can easily change the flanger time (cycle) with the "presets"(23). These presets can be tuned with the "X-parameter knob"(24) in a range from 100mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Yparameter knob"(25) you can change the flanger feedback level. Hint: Every time you push the same preset button(23) you will restart the flanger cycle. The mixer comes with 5 standard filter presets but you can easily adjust these presets(23) with the "X-parameter knob"(24) in a range from low pass filter (LPF) @ 50Hz (display shows: L 0. With the "Y-parameter knob"(25) you can change the filter resonance level. (This is the Q-factor of the filter , it changes the impact of the filter on a selected frequency). You can replace the standard presets with your own parameters, simply by pressing the "X-parameter knob"(24) and one of the 5 preset buttons (23) together. With the preset buttons(23) you can select filter cycles that are beat synchronized. (example: press the preset called "8" it will take 8beats for the filter to change its cutoff frequency from 20kHz to 50Hz and back) The presets can be tuned with the "X-parameter knob"(24) in a range from 100mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Y-parameter knob"(25) you can change the filter resonance level. (This is the Q-factor of the filter , it changes the impact of the filter on a selected frequency) REVERB: This effect is best described as the "church effect". Imagine you play music in a church or in a very big, empty hall: the reverb you get from all kinds of reflections against the walls is digitally simulated with this effect. These reverb times can be tuned with the "X-parameter knob"(24) in a range from 0% to 100% in steps of 1%. With the "Y-parameter knob"(25) you can change the balance between the original and the reverb sound. You can replace the standard presets with your own parameters, simply by pressing the "X-parameter knob"(24) and one of the 5 preset buttons (23) together. With the "presets"(23) you can choose the length of the cutting cycles. (example: With preset "1/4" (remember to push the "X-parameter knob"(24) while you select the preset button called "4") the music will be cut in ¼beat slices) The presets can be tuned with the "X-parameter knob"(24) in a range from 25mSec up to 16Sec. With the "Y-parameter knob"(25) you can adjust the "cutting time". When completely turned to the left (display reads "0%) cutting time is zero so no cutting effect will be heard. Turn the "Y-parameter knob"(25) to the right, the cutting time becomes bigger until you only hear very small slices of the original sound. You obtain the best results with constant beats, very small cutting cycles (1/8, 1/4 and 1/2beats) and larger cutting times of 50% and more. [. . . ] This is what you must do to change a channel fader: Remove the fader knobs from the faders. Remove the 6 screws that hold the small front panel around the faders. Be sure to fit the contacts into the connector on the mixer PCB-board. Put the 3 screws from the fader back in place Put the small front plate back in place with the 6 screws. [. . . ]
