Reference [Effects]

This section explains how to use the effects built into the MRS-1044.

About the effects

The MRS-1044 has two types of effects, an "insert effect" and two "send/return effects." The two types can be used simultaneously. The two types of effect are described below in detail.

For example if you insert the insert effect into the input mixer, the effect can be applied to the signal that is input from the [INPUT 1/2] jacks, and recorded on a track of the recorder. Alternatively if you insert the insert effect into a channel of the track mixer or immediately before the MASTER fader, you can process a specific track or the entire song during mixdown.

Insert effect

The insert effect is used by inserting it into a specific signal route. You can select one of the following locations at which to insert the effect. (See the "Insert Effect" diagram below.)

(1)Input mixer

(2)Any channel of the track mixer (1 – 6, 7/8, 9/10, DRUM, BASS)

(3)Immediately before the MASTER fader

Send/return effects

The send/return effects are internally connected to the send/return of the mixer section. The MRS-1044 has two send/return effects, reverb (REVERB) and chorus/delay (CHORUS/DELAY), and these two can be used simultaneously. The send levels of the input mixer or track mixer adjust the effect depth of the send/return effects. Raising the send level will send the corresponding signal to the input of the effect, and the signal processed by the effect will be returned immediately before the MASTER fader, and mixed with the other signals. (See the "Send/return effect" diagram below.)
