The manual is available from digitech; look in discuntinued products.

It's a complex device.  Two inputs, four outputs, an effects library, 
and everything routable just about any which way you want.

This means: Start with an input, pick an effect, link them, pick the 
next, link, split into two paralles lines, pick effects and link for 
each line, split one line again (to have three parallel), pick and link, 
create a feedback with effects in it and link it to a mixer...
Any effect can be reused as you wish; it's a matter of when you run 
short of processing power and memory.

So, you can do mono in, mono out, mono in stereo out, stereo in stereo 
out, one mono in/out + one mono in / stereo out...

Reverbs, echoes, single/multipole chrous, flangers, parametric EQ, 
multiband EQ, pitch transpose, harmonizing...

The envelope follower means effect parameters can be controlled by 
dynamics in playing style, i.e. for ducking reverb, echo feedback 
buildup, chorous speed/depth...    I mostly use this to add-in some 
4-tap echo and harmonizing when sustaining notes/chords.

The TSR-24S (dual DSP's) runs a bit hot, so needs free space around it.
TSR-24 (single DSP) runs cooler.

Programming may take time  ;)
