Applying reverb while bouncing tracks Loop, MIX Sw mix switch

Chapter 8 Using the internal effects

■Applying reverb while bouncing tracks (Loop)

Here we will explain the settings for applying an effect to previously-recorded tracks and record- ing the sound to another track. For example, this will be convenient when you wish to apply reverb to an entire song and mix it down.

In this example we will apply reverb to tracks 1Ð6 and bounce them to tracks 7 and 8. In this case, the signal flow will be as follows.
