INITIALIZING PROGRAMS
If you want to start programming from “scratch”, you can easily reset all parameters
to their default settings by re-initializing the software. Make sure your mod wheel is all
the way down before re-initializing, otherwise the "zero" position of the mod wheel will
be incorrect.
To re-initialize the QS:
¿ Turn the power off.
¡ While holding down both Buttons [0] and [3], turn on the power.
The QS will come on showing Program 01 of Preset Bank 1, with the “*” flag showing
in the display and no Program Name. This is the Program Mode edit buffer, set to the
default settings. Re-initializing will also reset all Global parameters to their default
settings, and will initialize all edit buffers so that all Mix and Program parameters are
reset to their default settings. However, none of the Programs or Mixes are changed
when re-initializing the unit. You can proceed to edit, then [STORE] at any Program
location you like.
