18. EFFECTS

Pa50 is equipped with four powerful Effect Processors (A, B, C, D). You can send them the internal tracks.

DIAGRAMS

The following instructions show the signal path diagram for each of the effect types. The signal coming from the tracks (Send) is mono. Before entering an effect processor, it is split in two “wires” (Left and Right), and processed in stereo. The signal is then output in stereo from the effect processor, and sent to the Mix output (Left&Right, the heaphones or the internal speakers).
