JamMan Mode Knob

Stec Special ROM V0.2 Users Guide
Mode Knob <go back to table of contents>

In order to expand the functionality of the system, the user interface had to be modified somewhat. Ideally, there would be a peel-n-stick overlay for the front panel that would correctly identify the controls. That not being an option right now, I've provided the following panel overlay that you can print out, cut and tape to your front panel. Sorry, it's crude, but I just don't have the resources to do anything better. (This may be a good thing for the time being as the assignements of some of the controls is likely to change.)

The following table briefly describes each selection:

Label Description

MIDI Channel Selects the MIDI channel to which the system will respond

Audio Threshold This sets the signal level at which the system will trigger (start recording, restart playback) if the Operating Mode is set for Sampler.

Output Level This a soft controllable output level control. This can be stored if the EEPROM is installed and can also be controlled via MIDI Controller

Dry Level This sets the signal level of the dry input signal through the DSP. This is useful if you are using the system "in line" and want to have MIDI control of the dry signal. If used in an effects loop, this is usually set to 0. (note- the dry signal in this mode is summed to mono.)(also note that Mix knob needs to be set for 100% Wet to use the Dry Level control effectively.

Slap Time This sets the delay time of the built in slap delay

Slap Level This sets the signal level of the built in slap delay.

Click Level This sets the signal level of the "Click" (Metronome)

Level This sets the signal level of the "Active" Channel

Pan This sets the "Pan" (left/right position) of the signal in the stereo output image

Echo Divide This defines how the loop size is divided up when the Function is set for Delay.

Feedback This sets the amount of the output that is fed back into the input when the Function is set for Delay.

Function This defines which "Function" will become active when the TAP button is pressed (after the initial loop is "tapped" in).

Operating Mode This defines the global Operating Mode of the system.

Num Beats This defines the number of beats that will be assigned to the loop. This effects the "Click" and MIDI clock in and out.

Page This selects the current page for editing (pressing TAP makes it "Active").

Channel This selects the current channel for editing (pressing TAP makes it "Active").
