Chapter 13: Using the Effects
9. Play the DPS16.
The reverb effect sound is mixed with the playback sound on the TRACK MIX channel (for which the send
level is adjusted in step 5), and output from the MASTER OUT jack and DIGITAL OUT jack.
To change the effect amount for each channel, adjust the send level of the target channel in Mixer mode. (See
step 5.)
To change the effect level while keeping the balance between effect sound and dry sound for each channel,
adjust the effect return level. (See step 8.)
If necessary, you can edit the effect sound in Effect mode.
TIPS:
You can also select PRE or POST and set the send level and send master on the Control View page
(which is accessed by pressing the
[F1]
(CONTROL) key in Mixer mode). You can view all channel
settings on one Control View page. This is useful when you wish to apply the same effect to many
channels. Refer to page 63 for more information on how to use the Control View page.
Usually, the Effect Return parameter is used to adjust the level of effect sound. However, with some
effects, the result may vary depending on the input level. If you are using such an effect on multiple
channels, change the SEND MASTER level in Mixer mode (Step
7
) to adjust the level of the signal input
to the effect while keeping the send level balance on each channel.
NOTES :
With stereo effect types, L/R channel signals output from the effects are sent to the MASTER bus L/R.
With mono effect types, the same signal is sent to the MASTER bus L/R. If the mono effects have a
programmable pan setting, you can adjust the L/R balance of the effect sound sent to the MASTER bus
L/R.
The following diagram shows the signal flow when applying effects via an AUX send for mixdown. (Numbers
beside the boxes indicate the sequence of the steps described above.)
