Getting Inside a Chain
The best way to see how all the pieces of a chain work together is to get inside one, which is what we’ll do here.
1. Start at the Studio:FXBUS page. Make sure you’re on a stereo bus.
2. Set the Type to Chain, choose chain “84 Scorched Earth”, then press edit:
3. On the Chain:QUICK page, use the cursor keys or the QUICK soft button to highlight box
4. Press the more> soft button to bring the C MOD soft buttons into view:
5. Press the C MOD1 soft button to display the Chain:C MOD1 page:
6. Press edit. This takes you to the PARAM1 page of the preset in the box that is highlighted on the Chain:QUICK page, regardless of what’s highlighted on the C MOD page.
7. Press the PARAM2 soft button to see the second page of parameters for this algorithm. Notice
that in addition to more parameters overridden by quick parameters there is also a parameter
(Threshold) that is overridden by an FXMod, in this case a Chain MOD, as shown above.
