EDITING A CONFIGURATION 1. Once the desired configuration is loaded,use the SCROLL button to move through inputs and outputs. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to select the desired parameter of an input or output. Use FREQ, “Q”, and/or GAIN knobs to make changes to the desired parameters. The chart below illustrates the general structure of MX8600 configurations.The number of PEQs per channel depends on CONFIGURATION A,B,C,D. To store a setting,follow the same procedure (beginning at step 3) of LOADING A PRE-CONFIGURED SETTING on previous page.

With the final,edited version of the desired configuration open,press MENU button and use FREQ knob to navigate to MEMORY STORE. Press ENTER button. By default,the MX8600 displays the next unused memory location with the filename Noname. 2.Use FREQ knob to select the desired memory location.Press ENTER button. 3.Use FREQ knob to select the first character in your filename and press SCROLL button to enter it.Repeat for each character in your filename (16 characters maximum).Press ENTER button.
