Master effects

The input levels to the master effects are set by the “Send 1, 2” levels (step 3 or 8). If “Send 1, 2” are zero, the mas- ter effects will not apply. “Send 1” corresponds to MFX1, and “Send 2” corresponds to MFX2.

0In Program P9: Edit-Master Effect, select the Master FX page.

AIn MFX1 and MFX2, select the type of each master effect.

The procedure is the same as when selecting an inser- tion effect (5).

The master effects cannot use double-size effects.

The master effects are mono-in/stereo-out. Even if a stereo-input effect is selected, it will function as mono input.

BPress the ON/OFF button to turn on the master effect.

Each time you press the button, the master effect will be switched on/off. When OFF, the output of the mas- ter effect will be muted.

CUse “Return 1” and “Return 2” to adjust the output levels of the master effects.

For each effect, the Wet value of the “Wet/Dry” parameter is the output level at the effect. The return value is multiplied with this (“Return” = 127 will be x1.0) to determine the actual output level of the mas- ter effect.

DSelect the MFX1 and MFX2 pages, and set the param- eters for each selected effect.

For details on the parameters of each effect (PG p.187–).

Master EQ

EUse the stereo 3-band master EQ to make final equal- izing adjustments immediately before the sound is output to the AUDIO OUTPUT L/MONO and R jacks.

Move the slider for each band to make adjustments. You can select the Master EQ page, and adjust the band frequency of the master EQ (PG p.239).

Effect settings in Combination, Song, and Song Play modes

In Combination, Sequencer, and Song Play modes, you can specify the routing of each timbre/track to the insert effects and master effects. These settings are made in the same way in each of these modes. We will be using the example of Combination mode in our explanation here.

Routing

1In Combination P8: Edit-Insert FX, select the Routing page.

2Select “IFX/Indiv.Out BUS Select.” Here you can specify the bus (insert effect) to which the output of each timbre will be sent.

The routing, insert effects, and chain settings are shown graphically in the upper part of the display screen. In this example, T01 (timbre 1) uses IFX1 and 2. T02 uses IFX2, T03 uses IFX3 and 4, T02 and T05 use IFX4, and T06 and T07 use IFX5. Selection of each effect type, the on/off setting, and chain settings are made in the Insert Effect page.

3“Send1,” “Send2” specifies the send level from each timbre to the master effects.

This can be set only if “IFX/Indiv.Out BUS Select” is set to L/R or Off.

The actual send level is determined by multiplying this by the “Send 1” or “Send 2” settings for oscilla- tors 1 and 2 within the program selected by the tim- bre. If the program parameter “Send 1” or “Send 2” is set to 0, the resulting level will still be 0 even if you raise this send level.

If “IFX/Indiv.Out BUS Select” is set to IFX1–5, the send levels to the master effects are set by “Send 1” and “Send 2” (Insert FX page) following the insert effects.

Insert effects

Select an effect for IFX1–IFX5, and set “Pan (CC#8),” “BUS Sel. (BUS Select),” “Send 1” and “Send 2” for the signal that has passed through each insert effect. If effects are chained, the settings after the last IFX in the chain will be used. “Send 1” and “Send 2” adjust the amount of master effect that is applied to the signal that has passed through the IFX. These settings can be made in the same way as for a program (p.140).
