Tips: Applying an Effect on the Source Channel

It is possible to apply effect sound on the source channel during BUSS RECORD.

1.EFF1 or EFF2 can also be selected at the same time for the source channel from the display (appears by pressing the [BUSS SOURCE] key) to select the source channel, as described earlier.

The following figure shows the example where input H and EFF1 are both applied to the source channel, and allows EFFECT 1 to be applied to the input H signals.

2.Press the [CH PARAM EDIT-EFF1/EFF2] key to adjust the send level of effect 1.

Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch16, select input H and use the [JOG] dial to adjust the send level of input H. The signal level adjusted here is sent to effect 1. To adjust the master send level, use the [CH STATUS/ CH SEL] key of the master channel to select the master send level and adjust it with the [JOG] dial.

3.Press the [EFF EDIT-EFF1] key, select the effect type desired and then edit the effect parameter.

It is possible to apply the selected effect on the sound recorded.

Tips:

It is possible to apply different effects (EFF1/EFF2) on multiple source channels by individually tuning the signal level sent to EFFECT1/EFFECT2, upon adjust- ing the above effect send level.
