Korg Electric Keyboard manual Master Effects MFX1, Controlling the Insert Effects via, 159

3–2. BUS Select

This parameter enables you to specify the destination bus for the post-IFX signals.

“L/R” is a common setting to send signals to the Master EQ before they are routed to the OUTPUT L/R outputs.

Select 1, 2 or 1/2 to route the signals to AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL) 1 or 2 (☞ p.162 “Individual Outputs”). Select “Off” so that no signals will be output to L/MONO, R, 1 or

2.In this case, the signals are routed from the Master Effects to AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN). This setting is used when you are connecting the Insert Effect with the Master Effects in series using “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and S2 (Send2(MFX2)).”

3–3. Send level

These parameters enable you to set the send level of the sig- nals routed to Master Effects MFX1 and MFX2. These set- tings are effective only when “BUS Select” is set to L/R or Off.

If you are not using insert effect, set the PROG 7.1–1 MFX Send “Send 1” and “Send 2” parameters, the COMBI 7.1–1 “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” parameters, or the Sequencer mode SEQ 7.1–1/2, “S1 (Send1(MFX1))” and “S2 (Send2(MFX2))” parameter to set the send levels to master effects MFX1 and MFX2.

(If the separately sold EXB-SMPL option is installed, the send levels of the audio input in Program, Combination, and Sequencer modes are set by GLOBAL 1.1–4a/b.)

Send Level 1 can be controlled by MIDI Control Change CC#93 and Send Level 2 can be controlled by MIDI Control Change CC#91.

4. Controlling the Insert Effects via

MIDI

Using the Dynamic Modulation (Dmod) function enables you to control all effect parameters in real-time during per- formance from the controllers of this instrument or a con- nected MIDI sequencer. You can also control the “Pan (CC#8),” “S1 (Send 1(MFX1)),” and “S2 (Send 2(MFX2))” of the post-IFX signals in the same way.

4–1. Program mode and Sampling mode (if the sep- arately sold EXB-SMPL option is installed)

You can control the parameters on global MIDI channel (MIDI Channel” (GLOBAL 2.1–1a).

4–2. Combination mode

Use Setup page “Control Channel” to set up the control channel for IFX. Select an appropriate option from Ch01–16,Gch, and All Rt.

Ch01–16:Select one of these settings when you want to use a single channel for control. An asterisk “*” will be displayed at the right of the channel number of timbres routed to the insert effect.

Gch: Selects this option if you wish to control the parame- ters on global MIDI channel “MIDI Channel” (GLOBAL 2.1– 1a). This is a common setting.

All Rt.: Select this option to control the parameters on the channels (Ch01–16 that have a “*” mark) for the timbres that are routed to the corresponding Insert Effect.

4–3. Sequencer mode

Use Setup page “Control Channel” to set up the control channel for IFX. Select an appropriate option from Ch01–16 and All Rt..

Ch01–16:Select one of these settings when you want to use a single channel for control. An asterisk “*” will be displayed at the right of the channel number of timbres routed to the insert effect. This option is suitable if multiple tracks on dif- ferent MIDI channels are sent to the Insert Effects and you wish to control the parameters using one of the tracks.

All Rt.: Selects this option to control the parameters on the channel numbers (Ch01–16 that have a “*” mark) for the tracks that are routed to the corresponding Insert Effect. “All Rt.” is a typical option. If you wish to control the parameters on a channel, select one from Ch01–16.

Master Effects (MFX1, 2)

1. In/Out

The I/Os of Master Effects MFX1 and MFX2 are mono-in/ stereo-out. “Send Level 1” and “Send Level 2” determine the send level to the Master Effects (☞ “Routing” and “Mixer”). Stereo signals will be combined to a mono signal automatically and sent to the effects.

The Master Effects do not output any Dry signals (signals that are not processed by the effects). Therefore, they output only Wet (signals that are processed by the effects) signals (set via the “W/D” of the “MFX1” and “MFX2” page). The output signals from the Master Effects are routed to the L/R bus with the output level specified by “Rtn (Return1, Return2).” These output signals are mixed with the output signals from the bus specified by BUS page L/R, or with the output signals from the bus specified by “BUS Select” (Setup page in each mode) L/R, then routed to the Master EQ.

Selecting “00: No Effect” will mute the output. The pro- cessed signal will be output in one of the following ways, according to the type of effects 01–89.

	Mono In - Mono Out	+	Effect
Wet	Mono In - Stereo Out	+	Effect
	Stereo In - Stereo Out	+	Effect
			Effect

The possible routing of effect signal inputs and outputs is indicated in the upper left corner of the block diagram.

MFX1 and 2 are switched on/off by the “On/Off” parameter in the 7.2: Ed-MasterFX (or Master FX) Setup page “On/Off” of each mode. When off is selected, the output will be muted in the same way as for 00: No Effect.

Separately from this “On/Off” setting, MIDI control changes CC#94 (MFX1) and CC#95 (MFX2) can be received to turn each master effect off. A value of 0 is off, and a value of 1–127 restores the original setting. You can also use “FX SW” (GLOBAL 1.1–1b) to turn off MFX1 and MFX2 in the same way. This is controlled on the global MIDI channel “MIDI Channel” (GLOBAL 2.1–1a).
