Applying Effects via Send and Return

The procedure for applying effects 1–4 via the effect sends and returns is described below.

NOTE

•An effect that has been inserted into a channel cannot be simultaneously used with the effect sends and returns.

•All effects can be used via the effect sends and returns in new song with the initial default set- tings. If an effect has been inserted in a specific channel it can be removed and freed for use with the sends and returns as described in “Inserting an Effect Into a Channel” on page 119.

1 Referring to the instructions in “Recalling Effect Library settings” on page 116, recall an effect library preset that is based on the effect you want to use.

2 Make sure that the Selected Channel sec- tion [EFFECT] key is engaged and its indi- cator is lit.

Selected Channel knobs 1–4 correspond to EFFECT screens 1–4. Press the appropriate knob to call the desired screen.
