Chapter 1 Trying out the expanded functions

EQ/EffPreIns (Equalizer/effect pre-insert switch)

Select whether the equalizer and effect will be inserted dur- ing recording.

Off: They will not be inserted (same as Ver.1).

On: The signal into which the equalizer and effect have been inserted will be recorded.

10.Press track 2 [CH EDIT].

11.Repeat steps 5–9 to make the same settings as for track 1. However in step 7, select InsertR.

12.Press [EFFECT] several times until the display indi- cates “EFF EFFECT-1 PRM?”

13.Press [YES].

14.Select the effect that you wish to use. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.

For this example, a selection such as A51 GT:Country will make it easy to hear the results.

15.Press [YES].

16.Following the procedure for “Recording” (Quick start, p.9), record onto tracks 1 and 2.

Inserting two effects into one channel

It is now possible to insert two effects into the same chan- nel.

Follow the procedure for ÒInserting an effectÓ (p.34) and ÒInserting an effect into master out,Ó and insert EFFECT-1 and EFFECT-2 into the same channel.

*The effects will always be inserted in the order of EFFECT-2EFFECT-1. It is not possible to change the order of connection.

Inserting in stereo

If you wish to insert an effect (with a stereo patch algo- rithm) in stereo, turn on Channel Link (p.112).

If you insert an effect into a channel for which Channel Link is turned off, it will become a mono input/output effect regardless of the patch.

*It is also possible to insert in stereo by selecting InsertL for the L side and InsertR for the R side, as in ÒRecording while an effect is insertedÓ (p.35).

Inserting to the master out

It is now possible to insert effect into the MASTER OUT jacks. This is convenient when you wish to apply a com- pressor or equalizer to the combined output of the channels that have been mixed.

1.Press [EDIT(SOLO)] until the “MST EFF1 INS Sw=” dis-

play appears.

If EFFECT-1 is already inserted into another channel, the display will indicate ÒMST EFF1 INS Sw=ÑÓ (the setting cannot be made).

2.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.

EFF1 INS Sw (Effect 1 insert switch)

Off: The effect will not be inserted into the master out (same as Ver.1).

On: The effect will be inserted into the master out.

5.Press [PLAY(DISPLAY)].

You will return to Play condition.

EFFECT-2 can be inserted in the same way.
