[. . . ] DYNAMIC MIDI ® REVERBERATOR User Guide Unpacking and Inspection After unpacking the unit, save all packing materials in case you ever need to re-ship. Thoroughly inspect the unit and packing materials for signs of damage. Report any shipment damage to the carrier at once; report equipment malfunction to your dealer. Notice This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designated to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. [. . . ] Skipping allows you to remove specific registers from your footswitch step sequence. If, for example, you want to leave one or more effects out of a step sequence, simply clear the unwanted registers and turn the REGISTER/PRESET knob to 1. Now, the footswitch will increment through the registers, passing over the cleared registers without requiring you to step through them. Turning the REGISTER/PRESET knob to any position other than 1, will set up register chains which use cleared registers as loop points. Skip and chain functions are illustrated to the left. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 With the REGISTER/PRESET knob set to Register 1, the footswitch will step through the remaining registers, then loop back to Register 1. 1 2 3 5 6 7 8 11 12 13 15 16 128 Turning the REGISTER/PRESET knob to any position other than 1, will set up register chains which use cleared registers as loop points. The combination of cleared registers shown above would create these four chains . . . 1 2 3 5 6 7 8 11 12 13 15 16 128 If the REGISTER/PRESET knob is set to a register within a chain, the footswitch will cycle through the chain until the next cleared register, then loop back to the first register in the chain. (To use a chain containing Register 1, you must set the REGISTER/PRESET knob to another register in the chain. ) With the REGISTER/PRESET knob set to Register 7, the footswitch will step through this sequence . . . 7 8 5 6 If the REGISTER/PRESET knob is set to a cleared register, the footswitch will skip to the first register in the next chain, then step through that chain. 18 Advanced Programming Mode The Advanced Programming Mode is an exciting feature which lets you enhance the capabilities of Reflex at the push of a button. This mode provides a set of Utility functions that let you adjust a variety of system settings, and perform MIDI dumps right from the front panel. In addition, Advanced Programming Mode gives you access to additional parameters for the currently running Reflex effect, allowing much more subtle and complex editing. In this mode, the first 10 positions of the REGISTER/PRESET knob are used to select the available parameters for the currently running effect. To activate the Advanced Programming Mode, simultaneously press the PARAMETER/LEARN and the REGISTER/PRESET buttons. The three front panel parameter LEDs will light to indicate that the mode is active. Press the REGISTER/PRESET button at any time to return to normal Reflex front panel operation. Instantly available when you want it, out of your way when you don't, Advanced Programming Mode is a hidden storehouse of additional controls, each of which is described in the following pages. To enter Advanced Programming Mode, simultaneously press the PARAMETER/LEARN button and the REGISTER/PRESET button. PARAMETER/LEARN VALUE REGISTER/PRESET GATE INVERSE SMALL ROOM GUITAR STAGE MUSIC CLUB PIANO HALL VOCAL HALL LARGE HALL These three LEDs will light to indicate that APM is active. DECAY DELAY FX LVL To exit Advanced Programming Mode, press REGISTER/PRESET. 19 APM Utility Functions When you are in Advanced Programming Mode, positions 11-16 of the REGISTER/ PRESET knob select a variety of Utility functions which can be performed simply by selecting them and adjusting another single front panel control. Each function has an easily recognizable display code to indicate which function is active. The default status of those functions which are memorized is as follows: Function Pc Ch F 1 1(momentary) 12 13 14 15 16 Ch* dA dC F* A1-A8 Pc GATE INVERSE SMALL ROOM GUITAR STAGE MUSIC CLUB PIANO HALL VOCAL HALL LARGE HALL 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 RICH PLATE DRUM PLATE VOCAL PLATE FLANGER CHORUS CANYON MULTI TAPS RESONATOR Ch dA F dC In APM, positions 11-16 of the REGISTER/ PRESET knob select the Utility functions. Each function has an easily recognizable display code to indicate which function is active.

Channel Turn VALUE to select channel (0 = OMNI, or 1-16) for incoming MIDI messages. Footswitch Turn VALUE to select footswitch type: 0 = latching; 1 = momentary. Algorithm ID Display algorithm ID # of currently running effect. *These functions are memorized, and remain in effect until deliberately altered. 20 Algorithms and Parameters About the Algorithms Eight different reverberation and effects algorithms are used to create the sounds shipped with Reflex. Although the front panel DECAY, DELAY, and FX LVL parameters allow you to create thousands of variations on these sounds, Advanced Programming Mode lets you take front panel effects editing to a whole new level by giving you access to all of the parameters in each algorithm. [. . . ] When the display returns to the current effect ID, the LED of the parameter just altered remains on. Incoming MIDI data for patched parameters which are not available from the front panel is indicated by the flashing of all 3 front panel parameter LEDs. In Advanced Programming Mode, the uppermost parameter LED flashes to indicate MIDI activity. MIDI parameter values are only displayed if the parameter being controlled via MIDI is the one already selected by the REGISTER/PRESET knob. [. . . ]
