How to use the Dual Mode

We describe how to use the Dual Mode below.

<About features of the Dual Mode>

1.You can use the DE-10 as a two-channel effect processing unit.

2.Each effect processor (EFFECT 1 and EFFECT 2) provides a mono input and stereo output jacks.

3.A main parameter for each effect can be edited from the preset value.

The following shows the example of using the dual mode, in which the DE-10 is connected between the AUX SEND and AUX RTN jacks for applying the desired effect to a sound.

<Point>

Connect the Foot SW into the jack to re- motely control the Effect Mute ON/OFF.

<Front panel settings>

1.Set the MODE switch to "DUAL".

2.Set the TYPE switch for each of EFFECT 1 and 2 to the desired position.

You can select from among the following eleven types. See page 5~7 for details about each type.

SW MODE	SINGLE 1/DUAL	SINGLE 2	SW MODE	SINGLE 1/DUAL	SINGLE 2
A	L. HALL	L. HALL	G	DELAY	DISTORTION
B	S. HALL	S. HALL	H	MISC	G. MULTI 1
C	ROOM	ROOM	I	CHORUS	G. MULTI 2
D	PLATE	PLATE	J	PITCH	B. MULTI
E	VOCAL	MIC SIM	K	FLANGER	VO. MULTI
F	DELAY + REV	AMP SIM

3.Set the VARIATION switch for each of EFFECT 1 and 2 to the desired position.

4.Using the appropriate ADJUST control, adjust the parameter for each of EFFECT 1 and 2.

5.Using the appropriate MIX control, adjust the mixing balance of dry and effect signals fed from the OUTPUT jacks for each of EFFECT 1 and 2.

<About PEAK indicator>

The PEAK indicator on the front panel illuminates when the input signal to be monitored reaches 6 dB below the clipping level. Adjust the input level appropriately so that the PEAK indicator occasionally flickers. If you hear the output sound distorted though the PEAK indicator does not steadily light or illuminate so often, it may be due to the signal level increase in the effect processing. In such a case, reduce the input level so that the output sound is not distorted.

<Note on changing the switch position>

When you change the position of the MODE, EFFECT TYPE, or VARIATION switch, the DE-10 resets the internal DSP and the output signal disappears momentarily. This is due to not a malfunction.

<Notes on using the ADJUST and MIX controls>

•When you turn the ADJUST or MIX control, a click may be generated with some effect type.

•If the default of a parameter is the maximum or minimum value, you cannot increase or decrease the value using the ADJUST control, respectively.
