Chapter 3, Editing M20 Parameters
ALESIS M20 REFERENCE MANUAL 1.06 3-3
3.1G SELECTING PAGES
Most buttons have at least one associated display page, which contains one or more
parameters. If there are multiple pages, the main display’s left side shows the current page
number; repeatedly pressing the associated button cycles through the pages.
Shortcut: To access a particular page directly, hold the associated button and use the keypad to enter
the desired single-digit page number.
Functions with double-digit page numbers (e.g., the Utility function) have a different access
procedure. Hold the current function button and press the 2 digits within 3 seconds of each
other. To select a single digit page number (1 through 9), press and hold the current function
button and either:
• Enter 0, then the digit; or
• Press the single digit, then the Enter button. (Note: If the Enter button is not pressed
within 3 seconds, the display reverts to its previous state.)
3.1H SELECTING PAGE PARAMETERS
To select the desired parameter for editing in multi-parameter pages, position the cursor
with the Left or Right Cursor button under the parameter value’s rightmost digit.
3.1I ENTERING PARAMETER VALUES
Entering complete values: Use the numeric keypad and enter the most significant digit first.
Enter all of a field’s digits to complete the entry. The cursor automatically advances through
the fields.
Increment/decrement a value by one: Use the keypad’s Up and Down buttons. Holding the Up
or Down button for more than 2 seconds increments (or decrements) the value continuously.
The value above the cursor will be changed. If the value goes beyond a boundary (for
example, increasing from 59 seconds to 0), the next field will be calculated automatically (in
this example, the minute field will be automatically increased).
