Getting Started

Main Features

The DPS-V55M is a four channels multi–effect processor.
Four channel construction
The DPS-V55M is outfitted with four inputs (and outputs) and can
route the input signals in a variety of different ways depending on
the chosen effect algorithms and program structures.
Flexible effect algorithms and program structures
The DPS-V55M incorporates a total of 45 different effect
algorithms divided into three different types: 4ch, 2ch (stereo),
and Mono-Pair. Each effect contains several adjustable parameters
and can be easily modified. In addition 2ch and/or Mono-Pair
effects can be used in combination within a program, and the
program structure can be switched between serial and parallel,
allowing you to take full advantage of the four channel
construction.
User-friendly operating environment
A primary concern when creating the DPS-V55M, was to provide
an intuitive operating system for creative sound control. All effect
parameters can be accessed directly using the EDIT PARAMETER
buttons.
Large memory banks
In addition to the 200 different preset programs (numbers
001~200) created by musicians and engineers from around the
world (preset memory), there is also room for you to store up to
200 of your own original programs in the user memory (numbers
201~400). We've also included a search function so you can recall
the programs you need without having to remember their
program numbers.
Search function
The search function lets you locate programs you want by
specifying the type of effects they contain. (See page 12.)
TAP function
The TAP function lets you adjust certain parameters or trigger
certain effects simply by tapping on the ENTER (TAP) button. (See
page 15.)
MIDI compatibility
The MIDI interface lets you conduct program change and data
save operations. (See page 17.)
