Using Insert Effects

The BR-600 comes with five onboard effects processors: an
insert effect, loop effects, track EQ, pitch correction and
mastering tool kit. Below is an explanation of the operations
related to the insert effects.

Confirm that [PAD] is not lit, then press [EFFECTS]
to display the currently selected effect patch.

Your BR-600 allows you to automatically select the
most suitable “banks” by pressing an INPUT SELECT
button.
For example, pressing the [GUITAR] INPUT SELECT
button changes you to a guitar bank patch, and pressing
[LINE] changes you to a line bank patch.
Banks are a collection of effect patches.
GTR (GUITAR) :
Effect patches for use with guitars.
MIC :
Effect patches for use on the sound from the MIC input
(i.e., vocals).
LIN (LINE) :
Effect patches for use on the sound from CDs and other
external devices from the LINE input.
SML (SIMUL) :
Effect patches for recording vocals and a guitar
together.

“Effect Patches and Banks” (p. 92)
What is an insert effect?
An effect added directly to a specific signal (with the
BR-600, this refers to the instrumental sounds from an
INPUT jack) is called an “insert effect.” The effect
pedals that a guitarist connects between his guitar and
amp are a type of insert effect.
Loop effects, on the other hand, are effects connected
to the send/return jack of mixers and other similar
devices. (refer to p. 118)
What is an effect patch?
The BR-600 provides numerous effects for vocals,
guitar, etc., and two or more of these effects can be used
simultaneously. Such a combination of effects (i.e., the
types of the effects used and the order in which they are
connected) is called an “algorithm.”
Each effect in an algorithm offers a certain number of
parameters, which allow the sound to be altered
(similar to tweaking the knobs on a stomp pedal). The
algorithm and its parameter settings are bundled into
units called “effect patches.”
By changing the effect patch, you can simultaneously
change the stored effect combinations, their on/off
status, and the parameter settings, and completely
change the sound.

When INPUT SELECT is set to MIC, if either MIC1 or
MIC2 is used, the MIC bank is selected. With both are
connected, or neither of them is connected and the
onboard stereo mic switched on, the LINE Bank is
selected.
