Регулятор устанавливает уровни левого и правого каналов одновременно.

2)Ìèêñ. Определяет баланс прямого (необработанного) и обработанного сигналов.

3)Выход. Определяет уровень сигнала, подаваемого с MicroVerb 4 на микшер или усилитель.

4)Индикаторы уровня. Отображают уровень сигнала, поступающего на внутренние контуры прибора. Каждый из каналов (левый и правый) имеет свой индикатор уровня, однако в монофоническом режиме горят оба индикатора.

5)Светодиодный дисплей. Дисплей отображает выбранную программу. При нажатой Кнопке [BANK/MIDI], на дисплей выводится номер канала MIDI. Если производятся манипуляции ручками [EDIT A] или [EDIT B], то дисплей отображает величину редактируемого параметра. Номер выбранной программы отображается с чуть большей яркостью по сравнению с остальными параметрами. При нажатии на кнопку [STORE], на дисплее будет мигать номер программы-приемника.

6)Кнопка [STORE]. При нажатии на кнопку [STORE], на дисплее будет мигать номер программы, под которым будет сохранена текущая. Если еще раз нажать на эту кнопку, то дисплей быстро замигает и текущая программа сохранится. Программы запоминаются только в пользовательский банк (номера 100 — 199).

7)Кнопка [BANK/MIDI]. Каждое нажатие на кнопку приводит к выбору программы из противоположного банка. Например, если была выбрана пресетная программа {34}, то при нажатии на эту кнопку, MicroVerb 4 переключится на пользовательскую программу с номером {134}.

При удерживании этой кнопки более одной секунды на дисплей выводится номер MIDI-канала. Для изменения номера канала необходимо вращать колесо [VALUE], удерживая нажатой кнопку [BANK/MIDI].

Колесо [VALUE]. Колесо используется для выбора программ и изменения канала MIDI (см. выше).

9)Регуляторы [EDIT A]/[EDIT B]. Все программы MicroVerb 4 имеют по два регулируемых параметра. В зависимости от программы это может быть длина хвоста, глубина хоруса и т.д. При повороте одного из этих регуляторов, дисплей на короткое время отобразит новое значение редактируемого параметра.

10)Список параметров. Список отображает различные группы программ, связанные с ними эффекты, а также определяет функции регуляторов [EDIT A] и [EDIT B].

Программы

MicroVerb 4 имеет 100 пресетных программ, расположенных в банке пресетов и 100 пользовательских, хранящихся в пользовательском банке. Эти программы позволяют использовать MicroVerb 4 в самых разнообразных областях. Различие между пользовательскими и пресетными программами заключается в том, что пользовательские программы можно перезаписывать, в то время как пресетные зашиты в постоянной памяти.

Для смены программ используйте колесо [VALUE].

Переключение между пресетным и пользовательским банками

Для мгновенного переключения между банком пресетов и банком пользовательских программ используется кнопка [BANK]. Каждое нажатие на эту кнопку приводит к переключению с одного банка на другой. Банку пресетов соответствуют программы с номерами 00 — 99, а пользовательскому — от 100 до 199.

Перейти из одного банка в другой можно также с помощью колеса [VALUE]. При вращении [VALUE] по часовой стрелке после пресетной программ с номером {99}, произойдет переключение на пользовательский банк, и на дисплее высветится номер первой программы из этого банка — {100}. И наоборот, при вращении колеса [VALUE] против часовой стрелки после программы с номером {100} (первой из банка пользовательских программ), произойдет переход к пресетному банку, и на дисплее появится номер пресетной программы {99}. Однако, если вы будете вращать колесо [VALUE] дальше и достигнете программы с номером {00}, то переключение на пользовательскую программу с номером {199} не произойдет. Дисплей будет отображать номер первой программы из банка пресетов — {00}.

Управление миксом прямого и обработанного сигналов

Независимо от количества эффектов, входящих в конкретную программу MicroVerb 4, вам необходимо установить требуемый баланс между прямым (необработанным) и обработанным сигналами. Баланс между уровнем прямого сигнала и эффекта, генерируемого MicroVerb 4, устанавливается с помощью регулятора [MIX] .

При коммутации с такими приборами как гитарный усилитель и т.п., [MIX] устанавливается примерно посередине, определяя одинаковый уровень чистого и обработанного сигналов. Если же MicroVerb 4 подключается к дополнительному посылу микшерной консоли, то имеет смысл вывернуть [MIX] до упора вправо (в этом случае на выходе присутствует только обработанный сигнал), а регулировку баланса прямого и обработанного сигналов проводить непосредственно на консоли.

Запоминание отредактированных программ

После того, как вы отредактировали программу, ее необходимо записать в память прибора. MicroVerb 4 запоминает текущую программу в долговременную память. Если вы не запомнили отредактированную программу, то при отключении питания или при выборе новой программы все изменения теряются.

Несмотря на то, что MicroVerb 4 имеет два банка (пресетный и пользовательский), программы запоминаются только в пользовательском банке.

Для записи отредактированной программы:

1) Нажмите кнопку [STORE].

На дисплее будет мигать номер программы-приемника, в которую будет сохранена текущая программа. Если редактируемая программа относится к банку пресетов (программы с номерами от 0 до 99), то MicroVerb 4 сохранит ее в соответствующую программу из пользовательского банка (увеличивая номер программы на 100). Вы не можете изменять номер программыприемника, т.е. не существует способа сохранить какую-либо версию программы 112 в программу с номером 113.

2) Нажмите кнопку [STORE] еще раз.

Мерцание дисплея в течение непродолжительного времени сигнализирует о том, что программа сохранилась.

Все изменения, внесенные в программу, остаются временными до того момента, пока вы не записали их в память. Если редактируемая программа выбрана из пресетного банка, то вы должны сохранить ее в соответствующую область пользовательского. Вызов другой программы перед сохранением редактируемой приводит к потере внесенных в нее изменений.
