Controls and Connectors
FX RTN (effect return) section
This section sets the effect returns (FX1 and FX2) on/off, and
determines the level of the effect signal and to which bus the sig-
nal is sent.

qAUX (PRE) knobs (1-4)

These knobs adjust the level of the effect sent to the AUX1 to
AUX4 buses.

wFX TO FX BLEND knob

Rotate this knob from the center “OFF” position to the right to
adjust the send level from FX1 to FX2, and to the left to adjust
the send level from FX2 to FX1. Only the pre-fader signal can
be sent.

eTAP button and indicator

This feature lets you set the delay time for FX2 by tapping on
the button. This feature only works when the effect type for
FX2 is set to “, DELAY” or “. SINGLE DELAY.” To set
the delay time, tap on the button at the appropriate interval.
The average interval at which you tap the button will be cal-
culated, and that value will be set for the delay time. Continue
tapping as necessary until you get the timing right.
The TAP indicator flashes in sync with the delay time when
, DELAY or . SINGLE DELAY is selected.
NOTE

time.
• See page 44 for the range of the variable delay time.
