What is the Sound Editor?
The Sound Editor for MAGISTOMP lets you edit the MAGICSTOMP’s effect patches to create your
own original effect patches.
The Sound Editor’s easy to understand graphical interface lets you edit all of the effect
parameters right from your computer. Using the mouse, it lets you intuitively adjust the virtual
knobs on the computer’s display. You can also assign the parameters that can be controlled with
the MAGICSTOMP’s three control knobs.
The Sound Editor also lets you transfer the patches you’ve edited to the MAGICSTOMP’s memory,
store patch data in the MAGICSTOMP to your computer, and transfer the library files found in the
accompanying CD-ROM to the MAGICSTOMP.
