FINAL NOTES (EFFECTS)

A couple of behavior items that you may (or may not) have thought of:

1)If an effect processor is not assigned to a SEND (AUX SEND or EFFECT SEND), then that send will not return to the STEREO BUSS. (AUX SEND will still feed the AUX OUTPUT on the back panel of the 788.)

2)If you want to get both EFFECT SEND and AUX SEND out of the 788 independently, we do have a way of doing that. Check the Tips and Tricks at the end of this tutorial for detailed instructions.

3)When EFFECT 1 is assigned as a Multi-Effect Processor on channels 7/8, it only receives input from channel 7, but returns stereo effects to 7/8. This is because the Multi-Effect Processor is a mono in, stereo out processor.
