Using the insert effects

Changing how the insert effects are used according to the mode

By default, the insert effect is inserted immediately after the input source. The reason for this is to allow for the effects- processed (wet) sound to be recorded and monitored. However, sometimes you want to change the connection order.

On the BR-864, you can accommodate a wide variety of situations by changing the point to which the insert effects are connected.

Follow the procedure below to change where insert effects are connected.

1.Press [UTILITY].

2.Press CURSOR [ ] [ ] to move the cursor to “EFX,”

and press [ENTER].
