Using external effects with the AUX buses

Using external effects with the AUX buses

External effect processing gear connected via the [OMNI OUT] jacks can be used in place of the internal effects. The example given in this section describes the procedure for applying an exter- nal mono-in/stereo-out reverb processor to a track channel via the AUX1 bus.

1 Lower the [STEREO] fader to the –∞posi- tion.

2 Call the PATCH screen Output page by

pressing the Work Navigate section [PATCH] key.

This page is used to assign the AW2400’s various internal signals to the output connectors.

3 Move the cursor to the OMNI OUT ASSIGN 1 field and use the [DATA/JOG] dial or the [INC]/[DEC] keys to select “AUX1”.

This assigns the AUX1 bus signal to [OMNI OUT] jack 1.

•The AUX bus signals can also be assigned to an I/O card installed in the I/O slot, or the [DIGITAL STEREO OUT] con- nector.

4 Referring to the diagram, connect the exter- nal signal processor to the AW2400.
