■ Assigning parameters to the Q-LINK knobs/sliders

Here’s how to assign the desired parameters to the knobs and sliders of the Q-LINK sec-

tion.

1. Press the Q-LINK section [SETUP] key.

The Q-LINK setup page will appear. Press the [F1] key (KNOB) to assign a parameter

to a knob, or press the [F2] key (SLIDER) to assign a parameter to a slider. The corre-

sponding page will appear.

2. Move the cursor to the Multi ﬁeld and select the multi for which you want to

make settings.

Since Q-LINK settings are stored as part of the multi, you must ﬁrst use the Multi ﬁeld

to select a multi.

3. Move the cursor to the destination block of the knob or slider that you want to

assign. Move the cursor to the left PART/FX ﬁeld and select the element you

want to control.

You can select whether to control a part (PART) or an effect parameter (FX).

4. Move the cursor to the right field. Specify the part number if you selected PART

in step 3, or specify the effect number if you selected FX.

5. Move the cursor to the Assign field and select the parameter that you want to

control from the knob or slider.

If you selected PART in step 3, you can choose from the same parameters as for a pro-

gram modulation destination.

If you selected FX in step 3, you can choose from the effect parameters of the corre-

sponding effect.

6. Move the cursor to the Type ﬁeld and turn the [JOG] dial specify how the value

will be modified; OFFSET (adjust the value in the positive or negative direction,

relative to the current setting) or REPLACE (set the value according to the

position of the knob or slider, regardless of the current setting).

7. Move the cursor to the Range ﬁeld and turn the [JOG] dial to specify the range

over which the value will be modified.

8. Make settings in the same way for other knobs and sliders.

9. When you have finished making settings, save the multi as necessary.

10. Turn on the [ACTIVE] key for the Q-Link knobs and sliders you want to use.

Nothing will happen if you move a knob or slider whose [ACTIVE] key is off.

11. Start the sequence or song, and operate the knobs and sliders of the Q-LINK

section.

The corresponding program or effect will be modiﬁed.
